FG Directs ASUU To Return To Classroom; Releases Money by Ijeleigbo(m): 11:01pm On Aug 24, 2013
The federal government has ordered that
lecturers should go back to classrooms
immediately after it said it had disbursed the
sum of N30 billion for earned academic
allowances.
The directive which was given by the secretary
to the government of the federation, Sen Anyim
Pius Anyim, during a meeting between the
federal government and the vice-chancellors of
the 61 public universities, stated that
“Government, hereby, urges every staff of the
nation’s universities to return to work as all
issues are being resolved.”
Speaking on the N92billion earned allowances,
Anyim said:
Staff of the universities that is so entitled should
verify his claim with the university council and
accordingly get paid as “from the foregoing, it is
obvious that government has demonstrated
sufficient commitment to the implementation of
the 2009 FG/ASUU agreement.
“After series of discussions, government has now
provided N30 billion to support the university
councils in settling the earned allowances. The
amount will be disbursed to the various
university councils which are in the position to
know who is entitled to how much after
verification.”
He revealed that “Traditionally, universities pay
this to deserving staff but because of the
amount which ASUU now claims as arrears,
government has decided to assist the university
councils to pay” as government did not receive
any computation of amount involved until
February, 2013.
“By this computation, ASUU is claiming N92
billion as arrears for three year’s payment based
on percentage rage of between 15 and 20 per
cent of personnel cost.”
While there was consensus that revitalising the
tertiary institutions is of critical importance to
the nation, Anyim noted that “when put
together, the amount of funds from the
budgetary and non-budgetary sources that goes
into the sector is quite huge but without
corresponding impact.”

OluFamous.Com gathered that ASSU has resolve
to continue the on-going strike until all
agreements signed in 2009 are reached.

That's some positive news. They should just call d strike off because students have begun forgetting their matriculation numbers.
