​Fresh strike may be in the offing across Nigeria Universities as the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) holds its National Executive Council (NEC) meeting this week.

The NEC, which is the highest decision making body of the union, is to review Federal government’s implementation of the Memorandum of Action (MoA) it signed with the union before it suspended its strike a few months ago.

Both government and ASUU had agreed to an MoA which stipulated that the federal government would have implemented its agreed contents latest by October, 2017.

The federal government according to investigation, however, was yet to implement issuance of license for the registration of Nigerian University Pension Company (NUPEMCO) which it promised to do within two weeks of strike suspension.

The FG is also defaulting in payment of ‘Earned Academic Allowances and revatilisation funds’ for public universities.

Some lecturers at the University of Ibadan, who spoke with journalists on the condition of anormnity at the weekend noted that it was unfortunate that the government had not paid as promised by end of October.

They said they had asked their leadership not to suspend the strike until the government paid the money as promised but didn’t heed their advice.

Based on the tension generated on campuses, ASUU President Professor Biodun Ogunyemi sent a mail to all the members to douse the tension over the payment of earned academic allowances

“Dear Comrades, the leadership of the union is aware of the palpable tensions on our campuses over the delay in the payment of Earned Academic Allowances (EAA).

“It is therefore not a surprise that for the past three days, a circular dated 24 October, 2017 related to EAA is already trending on some social media network/platforms. The leadership of the union can say categorically that the gaps/Omissions in the said circular were addressed at a meeting with the Honourable Minister of Education last weekend. We have gone far on the matter and there should be results in a matter of days. Thank you”, he wrote.

It was gathered that the Federal Government audit teams have visited campuses and concluded the auditing of staff as agreed but was yet to pay the 23billion Naira promised by the end of October as payment for the 2009/2010 Earned Academic Allowances of lecturers in public universities in Nigeria.

It was also gathered that the NEC of the union will review the implementation of the Memorandum of Action and jointly take a decision on it.

The system, called man is down..,,,a virus called SELFISHNESS has invaded it..the negative effect is malfunctioning man...,,,,Man oh man when will we be free from selfishness Our Education is deadened,the government is doing nothing about it,those involved are seeking for theirs,,,many have taken advantage of the failed system to sustain themselves...We have nothing to hold on to...Our leaders have failed us,the citizens have failed themselves by anchoring to the following ideologies..Tribalism,Nepotism and Favourism in voting in and selecting their leaders...I think we need to shut down all systems in this country,,,and lock ourselves out of the reach of the world outside us,,then think on how to solve the basic problems our masters caused,followed by the issues we created for us....Can Nigeria be the same again?

Which way forward in this country? Nothing seems to be working.

nonsense, l taught l read somewhere that federal government released some cash to them this week

which way 9ja

that means the earned allowance is for 2009/2010 only.

Buhari-led government is not not ready to implement any 2009 or 2013 agreement.

I said it the moment ASUU announce conditional suspension of strike
I knew it a time bomb


No priority is given to education in this country
Very soon they will start uploading pictures of their wards convocation in foreign institutions

A Proffessor of geology in Ui was quoted this morning saying "Graduate of Geology are now riding okada"
