FG Stops Salaries Of Striking Lecturers by searay(m): 7:31am On Oct 11, 2013 |
BY LAIDE AKINBOADE ABUJA—As the ongoing strike by Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, enters the fourth month, there are strong indications that the Federal Government has commenced the implementation of the “No Work, No Pay” rule. Vanguard gathered from a reliable source at the National Universities Commission, NUC, that the government has passed a directive to the various universities governing councils to stop payment of salaries of the striking lecturers. cartoon-ASUU The ASUU Zonal Chairman in Abuja, Mr Clement Chup confirmed this yesterday after a zonal conference of ASUU, University of Abuja chapter, which took place at the Gwagwalada campus to review the nationwide strike. He said his colleagues were yet to receive their September salaries. According to him, “we have resorted to other welfare strategies to cope with the effect of the strike, particularly to contain the various attempts by government to break the resolve of the union. The Federal Government has through the National Universities Commission, directed universities to stop the payment of our salaries effective September this year and since then our salaries have not been paid. “Part of the welfare strategy, involved distributing food items, giving out soft loans and cash advances to members.” He urged members of the public to ignore the rumour that the strike has been called off. He said: “Nigerians should disregard rumours making the rounds that the three months old strike has been called off”, adding that “the strike continues until the government demonstrates a positive inclination towards implementing the 2009 agreements and the 2012 Memorandum of Understanding signed by both parties.” SOURCE: Vanguard |

I still stand firm behind the striking lecturers. They can't keep allowing the government to waver them at their will. And what a time to pick..when they've started hoarding money for their future political ambitions. If the Federal Government believes this to be the best they could do in response to their promise of better pay and facilities, fine. The world is watching 3 Likes |

okpara ugo: this government is too slow. I would have stopped paying them from the 2nd month of the strike. nah hunger go make them return to classes...Govt is not slow, they are only following d law! No-Work-No-Pay can only be evoked if the strike last for more than 3months. If govt used NWNP at less than 3months, ASUU will drag them to court! |
