Can't pay 110billion for the revitalization of a over 100 government owned universities both FG and states but can delve into Elephant projects like feeding and deworming with 142billon. With 60% budget implementation they will spend at list 80 billion next year on this. Wait and see how much they will offer for the higher institutions for revitalization next year. Yet some people are expecting covid19 vaccine research in Nigeria. It's a big shame what our priorities are.

This is one of the problems that comes with IPPIS. You go through a lot of bureaucracy to get approval for employment and the new employees suffer before they get paid. It doesn't apply to police only.

Cmeo:
ASUU should take it easy with the govt and IPPIS because every system has it numerous challenges at beginning and get better over time. I was hoping ASUU should know this and show patient enough to get the IPPIS fully functional.

IPPIS still having problems after 13 years of operation in Nigeria and you think it's the best for the system?

Ikeja electric bill just landed. Sept 2020. 18k plus. Since the government is removing her hands from everything. I think they should just allow parents to start paying tution fees in universities. E.g the sum of 400k for a start will be good, such that even the professor's can't send their children to school. I think this is the way forward.
400k for social sciences and Art
500K for the sciences and Engineering and
600-800k for those intending to study Medical courses and Law.

This will be very good on the Nigerian worker on a minimum wage of 30k. ASUU should encourage government to do what they want but are hiding under disguise. Maybe that will make the system fuctional and they will have funds to fix the Universities.
The #Endtutionfees protest that will follow will make #endsarsachildsplay.

Ustec:

Rome wasn't built in day, I believe if all institutions can accept this payment system, sooner or later, the so called public holders will follow suit when the citizens start protesting and insist they do the same thing.

The appropriate word here should have been Leadership by example. They should cut off all the bogus allowances and serve as a civil servant on the same payroll and let's see if others won't support them.

raphieMontella:
Very commendable..

Irrespective of how the strike affects us students, I'm in support of this...

ASUU only cares about means of collecting money and nothing else...

We die here... Even if na March next year we go resume for ASUU to sit up and have sense no wahala

You go wait tire. New admisions not yet processed. So automatically, there will be no Jamb like 1996. We will see what happens.

otokx:


not purposely cut off, they only say its not official, minimum wage effected but arrears yet to be paid.

Did you work with IPPIS? Why have funds been released and paid to other federal staff since December 2019 but the Universities, Polytechnics, Colleges of Education and a few are yet to be paid? Dont you think that someone is trading with their money? Is that not an example of centralized corruption? Why are deductions not been remitted as at when due?

Xixtie:

You went to pick some random nonsense from the media to counter what I told you my parent earns? So highest paid professor in Nigeria earns #500k? Just when I thought I have seen it all.

May my life not turn out like yours.

You should know that Medical Doctors who are consultants working in the University dont earn the same with others. IPPIS works with approved payments from NSIWC and this information is available online. So don't use an isolated few cases to debunk what others are saying.

Xixtie:

My P man is a professor, he didn't even earn 600k in 2015 let alone currently nor that 500k meagre of a pay.
You hediots will just come online to embarrass yourselves by coming up with things you know shit about.
Stop airing hearsays, these people are deceiving you lots.
A known vertinary professor earns #1.4M, the same level with Sultan of Sokoto and most grade A kings in Nigeria. I bet you don't know those kings earn that much.
Now get out of my mentions and only say what you know.

This link will give you the PDF copy of what is confusing you with effect from 2019. Use your calculator well. After deductions your Prof on bar earns 423k.

Monjerk:


Una own even good, each time I look at my tax, and knowing that the government is not using it judiciously, I just feel so bad, am even thinking that my company is over taxing me.

Sometimes I pay tax of 86k to 95k plus NHF of about 6k to 8k, they still come remove pension of about 45k to 50k, the salary never finish be that.

I believe my company is over taxing us out of fear.

So painful.

On the lecturer own, the truth is that they were not paying tax before, now that they start deducting tax, those guys want to cry when they see their salary.

How much is your salary? All government workers pay tax. An assistant lecturer at Bar in 2014 has a gross of around 155k including housing, which is slightly about 1,000 dollars as at then with black market price was 163k. With IPPIS deductions and poor economy a professor earns less than the current rate of 1,000 dollars in 2020. The amount a PhD student will be paid for doing his PHD research outside the country. If everything keep going up, then salary of someone who pays for journal publications, society dues, conference participation and others in dollars, euros and GBP should not be stagnant. Not to talk of housing cost that has increased to times 2 or 3 of what government pays you depending on where you live. Nigerian workers have sacrificed enough. This is not the kind of CHANGE or NEXT LEVEL we bargained for.

UDUJ:
It is evil and a criminal act to owe workers 17 months arrears. Some people have no conscience at all. How do these people sleep at night? Damn this country is sick.]

Not only this group, the supposed minimum wage was implemented to universities, polytechnics and Colleges of education in February 2020. However, their arrears with effect from April '18' 2019 till January 2020 have not been paid.

They paid some civil servants December last year but others are still waiting, who knows where the money released is being kept.

Chaiii!!! Typical example of a yoruba man. You like zoning but don't like micro zoning.

You will tell me what was done for Obasanjo in 1999.

ORJI Uzor kalu donated about #500M in 1999 for Obasanjo's election
How much was OBJ's account balance in 1999?

The greed of South West remains the bane of the south and by extension the bane of the country.

Southwest had presidency for eight years
Vice Presidency for eight years by 2023 yet you want to be president again.

Na only una waka come for south?

But unfortunately for you guys , a whole lot of things are different now.

By this thinking, it seems you are sure APC will win 2023 presidential elections?

jericco1:
Lol greedy bastards.. when has ASUU strike ever benefited the students?!

Thank God I don pass that level

Ignorance. ASUU struggles gave birth to ETF now called TETFUND in the early 90's. So any school you see TETFUND or ETF intervention project in any university, polytechnic, college of education or monothecnics. Just know you are seeing ASUU product through strike action. Many state University today's only have TETFUND as their major infrastructure funder.

The fear of 5 million naira fine during COVID-19 period of no sales is the beginning of retraction of fake news

Ministry that didn't produce 10k job in 5 years how on Earth are they going to produce 2M jobs in 3 years. If he had said 50k he would have been close to acceptable reality for the populace.

Thumbs up to Lagos on the Biosecurity Lab level IV. This is the kind of governance required at alll levels of government to advance research and development. I'm also happy that the state has grants for innovations for researches across virtually all fields.

Long live Lagos

yusufobinna1:
The cost is very reasonable,some state will tell you they spent 50k per day.

4500 per day for 30days = 135,000 per month for food only. Does the state and other state you are talking about pay that amount in their minimum wage? To annoy some lecturers that's 5k more than the IPPIS take home of a PhD holder who is a lecturer II.

Wahala dey ooo, how will there not be unemployment?

After written an article that involves LUTH why post a picture of LASUTH

Haba mallam, even buhari will not tell you he implemented IPPIS. He only extended it away from the core civil service who has been on it for a very long time to the military, paramilitary and tertiary education. We will also encourage him to extend same to CBN, FIRS, NNPC and others not yet on the platform. If he can do this as well as make plain the amount of money generated by this agencies of government for government then he would have done well.

He should also make those jobs not attractive by making the salaries and allowances of the civil service to be at closing to par with those of the agencies above. Then we know that they are all government workers. It's a scam for an agency to generate for government take percentages for it's running cost and determine her salaries by herself at the detriment of others.

adanny01:


TSA proposed by Jonathan in 2012, implementation was by Buhari.

IPPS proposed in 2007, implementation was by Buhari.

Buhari is the only President in recent times with the will to do it right. Jonathan had the vision of doing it right but had no will of implementation which was due to his cabal who cared for their stomachs only.

Don't get me wrong, Buhari's cabal want it the same way but Buhari will not sanction it. Some of them end up with what they want and others far less than what they expected. At the end, the rot has reduced even if by 1%.

fmc1:
At least what they failed to do some Minos have done it.
Kudos to chadian soldiers!

That's incorrect. Nigerian Soldiers have been the most involved and dedicated to the fight agaist Boko haram. When they (BH) run to Chad, Cameroon and Niger, there is a limit you can take the fight to an Ally's territory.

The Lockdown all over the world is an advantage to crush Boko Haram in which all the nation's involved are clamping down on them seriously. NIGER and Nigeria lost several soldiers recently but they have still not retreated. It's now an offensive fight from the nation's involved to clear them off their hiding places.

The lockdown will make them have no supplies in terms of weapons and other logistics

January to December makes a year.

And not January to January!

Is January 30 to December 1 = one year

If you were an employer would you pay for work between Jan 1 and 29 that an individual didn't work with you? Would you pay full December salary for an employee that resigns on the 1st of December?

In this days of COVID-19, please don't just pick up animals with your bare hands. Protect yourself and others

sinkhole:
you better tell those staff to proceed to Abuja ASAP, otherwise no salary for life be that o!

That's one of the reasons ASUU is saying no. How can you be risking your life travelling to Abuja in the Nigerian of today over salary issues. Where is the issue of decentralization? Where will they sleep in Abuja? Who will feed them there? What if there cases aren't attended to and they have to go again? Is it someone, that hasn't taking salary that will be traveling about? Then the real man no man will begin to show up. Pay __K and you will get it done in 48hours. Is that how we move from under developed country to developing country not to mention developed country??
