Wallade:
Oh shut up, she marked her opponent who had to cut back and pass the ball to a free South Africa lady who was free and supposed to be marked by the two central defenders of Super Falcons.

OGHENAOGIE:
south AFrica are better currently so tone down... Make falcon qualify for world cup as for the trophy they can't win it... It's Left for NFF to build female league and stop this nonsense of always employing foreign coach...

SlyCharlie:
Which lazy oyibo defender??
Someone that was one of the standouts in that first match despite being played out of position??
Omo, Na wa o

Reussite:
Nope it's the other way round. They actually got 4 past Burundi.
Yes I agree Chikwelu & Ayinde are spent already. Ajibade could be more impressive I totally agree. I don't see them going far anyways.

KosiGee:
Ajibade is supposed to be one of the best players in this team but she is a let down. She in my opinion is one of the worst. Her ball juggling and other skills go AWOL whenever she’s playing, she can be slow in making decision and when she does, she executes poorly. She sometimes hold onto the ball a bit too long when she’s supposed to release to a better placed player. She over hits her passes or passes a bit too short.

Best player in the team so far is the tall Yekini like no 9, Onumonu. She need to improve on her shooting though.

The Ajibades, Chikwelu, Ayinde need to improve their games. This is not the falcon of old.

Congrats to them but this isn’t the team to judge or make any assesment. This Botswana team conceded 4 against Burundi and Burundi.

There appears no end in sight to the strike by university teachers as the national president of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Prof Emmanuel Osodeke, said they are yet to hear from the government, after meeting with Prof. Nimi Briggs renegotiation committee.

The committee is expected to review the draft proposed 2009 FGN/ASUU Agreement and renegotiate with all the striking unions.

Since April 2022, the Briggs renegotiation committee had been meeting with the unions to address the thorny issues in the 2009 agreement.

Osodeke in an interview said they are yet to hear from the Federal Government on the report of meetings had so far.

He said: “Since our meeting with the Briggs committee, the government has not called us for any feedback. All the committee told us was that they are waiting for their principal to respond, that once the Federal Government responds, they will get back to us.”

Osodeke said they had not gotten the invitation for another meeting and nothing is happening for now.

He, however, lamented that this was the situation since May 2021, “the same way they told us they were waiting for the FG and yet no result.”

Similarly, the national president, of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU), Ibrahim Mohammed, said all they have done were appraisals and reviews, while the Briggs committee said it would report to the Federal Government for the next line of action.

While ASUU commenced strike on February 14, SSANU’s strike started with a warning strike of two weeks, which commenced on March 27.

Some of the demands of SSANU include the inconsistent issue of Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS), unpaid earned allowances, and delay in the renegotiation of FGN, SSANU, Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and allied institutions (NASU) agreements, and non-payment of minimum wage arrears.

Others include neglect and poor funding of state universities, non-payment of retirement benefits to outgoing members of the unions, and usurpation of the headship of non-teaching units in clear violation of conditions of service and establishment procedures, among others.

ASUU’s demands include the release of revitalisation funds for universities, renegotiation of the 2009 FGN/ASUU agreement, release of earned allowances for university lecturers, and deployment of the Universities Transparency and Accountability System (UTAS) for payment of salaries and allowances of university lecturers

Nothing will be presented to FEC.
President is not even in Nigeria
But, seriously the whole discussion is at a very advanced stage now, there are some minor things to tidy up between the FG and the Unions.
Ngige said that the FG sides will submit reports to him, latest today. Then they will call the Unions to give them the FG's final resolution, if everything is OK then signing will be done and all will laugh

In other news...

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

#ENDASUU #ENDUTAS

Jman06:
I believe that domesticating IPPIS in the universities and having ASUU monitor its operations would solve the problem of undue deductions and reduce the stress of lecturers having to travel to Abuja sort out issues with payments.

Jman06:
I just hope ASUU excos are thinking properly!

From the way the payment platform issue is going, it is looking like an impossible task for ASUU to insist on UTAS. Already, SSANU has developed another platform which they called U3P or whatever. Very soon other unions will start coming up with their own platforms thereby defeating the noble purpose of IPPIS. No leader would want to be in that situation!

ASUU should please, in the interest of students, stop this insistence on UTAS. Instead, let them work with the FG to domesticate IPPIS in the various universities in order to help monitor the platform and curtail the bottlenecks in IPPIS.

Let them strive to always fight a just fight and not a fight that would create chaos in the polity. If they've been able to negotiate better pay with the Brigg's committee, let them forget UTAS and work on improving IPPIS, otherwise, they maybe giving Nigerians the impression that they have another fraudulent agenda with the UTAS platform.

sinkhole:
But I know the AGF office was thinking of domesticating the IPPIS in such a way that workers will not have to be going to Abuja for any problem again!

sinkhole:
Similar to Gifmis!

sinkhole:
Argument of FG (Ngige) is that approving UTAS for University will mean everybody will start bringing their own platforms, already the University is having two different platforms presented: that obviously is chaos and his argument is logical!
Why can't ASUU fight for the domestication of the IPPIS?

sinkhole:
You're right, and that is why they set up Briggs committee to help them do the talking and they have since finished their talks, unfortunately, the problem of the Universities does not end with just the Education Ministry! There is issue of finance (Ministry of Finance), issue of technicalty of payment platform (NITDA), you can not leave out the National Universities Commission (NUC) out of things like this, and so on. Besides, the whole problem is a labour issue and that is where Ngige comes in!

sinkhole:
From what I am even able to gather, FG has already agreed to most of their demands except this their UTAS thing! To me, I think they should just collect their salaries and leave the IPPIS alone!

sinkhole:
Actually, the proper word is, Chief Conciliator.
The Briggs' committee is just a committee set up by the Ministry of Education: they report to the ministry of education and they have since finished their own work.
It is Ngige that will sit all of them down (Education, Finance, NUC, ASUU, SSANU, NASU , NAAT, NITDA, etc) and finalize the agreement and then present to the Federal Executive Council (FEC) for approval.

Lastbornbuns:
Why is Ngige always showing himself when he is not minister of education?!
