A member of the National Caucus of the All Progressives Congress APC, Chief Sam Nkire has called on the Federal Government to consider banning the Academic Staff Union of Universities, saying it was hampering clog the development of university education in Nigeria.

In a statement made available to Vanguard on Wednesday in Abuja, Nkire said for many decades, ASUU had turned itself into a tool for destruction by its frequent strikes which have become a habit, rather than a development partner to the Nigerian university system.

The APC Chieftain said[b] “I believe our university system can run better without the disruption from ASUU[/b] which has turned itself into an employee intent on destroying the company”.

He added that all university staff came to work from various locations as individuals, adding that, “it is unacceptable for a group of individuals to gang up to determine whether and when Nigerians go to the university or not.

According to him, “it is the duty of the Federal Government not to allow ASUU or any other workers’ union to bring the government to it’s knees, cripple the economy and shut down the society.”

However, Nkire said he was not oblivious of most of the problems being encountered by the Universities and their teachers, but urged ASUU to put into account the challenges and numerous problems facing Nigeria and most countries in the world.

He advised ASUU and all other institutions which have embarked on any form of industrial action to consider the plight of their students and members and go back to work, adding, “ASUU has made it’s point and government and the people have heard them”.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has observed that resolving its ongoing strike action could be done by the adoption of the transparent payment platform, University Transparency and Accountability Solutions (UTAS).

So far so good, the only reason why we have been at home for the past 4 months is not because of salary arrears or revisitation funds.

The strike has always been because OF UTAS-A payment platform which ASUU designed to suit their own taste.

Meanwhile the army, doctors, police, etc are not complaining about IPPIS.


ASUU ARE JUST BEEN WICKED and they don't give a damn about we students.

They should be banned

I don't even know where to start replying you from. You don't even know why ASUU’ is on strike, but you are trying to know using the wrong format.

IPPIS payment platform is not suitable for the Nigerian tertiary institution system. You cannot run the university like the police, army etc. Try to understand how the university system works before attacking ASUU.

Who told you that doctors, police etc are not complaining about Ippis payment platform? This month your salary is 110k and by next month it's 95k. You don't even know what you are saying.

IPPIS is not robust enough to cater for peculiarities of lecturers. Also, visiting lecturers (adjunct & sabbatical) cannot be captured in IPPIS for working in more than one institution, illegal deductions etc

What is the essence of renegotiation for better pay for ASUU members when those benefits will be hijacked with Irregular monthly salaries and illegal deductions by IPPIS in Abuja. Maybe you were dreaming when the Accountant General of the federation was arrested for stealing billions of naira via IPPIS and other payment platforms.

The likes of SSANU, NASU etc that were deceived into enrolling in IPPIS are now saying that they don't want their salaries be paid via IPPIS. SSANU and NASU members are suffering financially because of the malicious/ new rates of deductions they are experiencing in their salaries. These are clear indications that IPPIS is not suitable for the Nigerian university system.

Ask yourself why CBN, FIRS, NNPC and other related departments are not getting paid by IPPIS? The platform is not suitable for them.

The introduction of IPPIS is not backed by law. As an entity, a Nigerian university is backed by an act giving it the freedom to run itself, and the introduction of a central payroll system is an infringement on this right.

Who told you ASUU is wicked to students? Girl you need to chill o. You no even understand anything about ASUU/FG fight.

ASUU should be banned . No dey comments for ASUU posts again. I beg
