Delay of June salary that is barely a week you want to go on strike

Why will the salary be delayed in the first place? Some people's only job is to pay salaries and they are failing woefully. Instead of you to hold them accountable, you chose to blame the victim. How can our nation be better with this mentality, when something as little as paying people who have worked can't be sorted hitch free? This, as they said is a repeated occurrence and not only June, if you didn't read.

Its very unfortunate for over 20 years I have seen how ASUU strikes have stunted the growth and potential of Nigerian youth in the universities across the nation. The politicians came p with the idea of sending their kids to school abroad and establishing private varsities.

But the lecturers and academics are the cause of their problems, when they decided to hobnob with the politicians , selling themselves cheap like crayfish.

Why should a university professor serve as an INEC returning officer or collation officer. I performed that role in 2007 , collation officer were either HND or Bsc holders , years back they were school cert holders and they performed their duties competently.

ASUU members are the cause of their problems, these politicians send their kids abroad, so the strike will be a long one.

The primary purpose of the academics is to critique the government not like their boots. ASUU has failed woefully in this regard, and worsened matters by dishing out PhDs for cash.

Though we understand the importance of paying salary as at when due especially for someone who rely only on salary, but going on strike for a salary delay of barely a week is completely political and I hope if they go on this strike and government also refused to pay for the time they went on strike there won't be any bohaha and their supporters on this forum will do well not to disturb us.

There are a lot of unscrupulous elements in ASUU. Barely a week after the month end, you are declaring a nonsense strike.

This same ASUU is the architect of Nigeria problems. They facilitate and ensure that elections are properly rigged meanwhile they're always at the receiving end of the effects of bad government

BAT should resign today. Mr Peter Obi should take over, abeg! BAT/APC HV relegated Education.

surgical:
I keep saying it this his minister of finance is very incompetent and on top of it he still made him coordinating minister, simple task he can't complete
Minimum wage he can't smoothly implement their meager award, it's been two years they came to destabilise the economy, the little respite they promised, they are stuck in implementation
If Tinubu is in charge or know what he is doing, would he not have interven ,like president like minister

You have said the right words.

Now leave it for dumb supporters of the government to chew on.

don't blames Nigerians they don too see yeye and suffering! So every bad thing now normal to them. The citizens problem 🙄 even pass their oppressor. aka the government.

the matter tie rapa and tire Mathias......Tinubu go hear am

SmartPolician:
You'll see ASUU members criticising politicians up and down, but when you give them the opportunity to become the returning officers during elections, they will hand over the election to the highest bidder.

ASUU chop my 6months that year. Chaiiiiii.....very anyhow group.

AntiChristian:
Ah ah ah!

This ones won't stop the nonsense they are skilled in perpetrating!

They know they'll be paid even for the striking times and in the end it's only the students that loses!

If you're paid N40Bn out of N50Bn, who told you the N10Bn won't come later?

Àwọn onijekuje, agbaaya!

Something is definitely wrong with you.

They are in strike due to incessant delays in salary and with their agreement with NEC, they are simply enforcing "no pay, no work"

I don't think you know what it means to have your salary (which isn't even enough) to be delayed constantly.

Then for your information, in industrial relations and labor matters, strike is a legal mechanism to achieve industrial solutions. Emphasis on LEGAL.

If the government doesn't want them to go oj strike, they should pay them their money. They've earned it!

Or do you hear of senators salaries ever being delayed??

Flame333:
Just one month salary and they are already taking leave with style...

I pledge na lie
Patriotism na zero

Can you please read the news?

The delay in salary have Ben happening for months now. They've engaged the minster of education and Accountant General but none seem to care.

Read the news for God's sake

Delay of June salary that is barely a week you want to go on strikeMr stop these blind,silly and toughtless opposition aimed at discrediting the government.delays in salaries could be caused by many reasons,inflows,banks,networks and softwares to say the least.delay is different from non payment and since 2years of this administration it has been addressed relatively.you people can only toy with your followers brain by pushing irrelevant narratives where some of your states back are owning months of salaries even without implementing increments…the lecturers should endure cos the government won’t go and borrow to pay salaries for a less than one week delay.
Some people that have never been employed or even unemployable will come here and say what they don’t have idea of.

Exactly the silly defence of an average Nigerian who take everything as an attack on the government they support. I knew exactly that your defense of this ineptitude is just because the failure brought to light will make your supported government look bad. So how is it that the reasons you give for failure are recurring without solution? Who is to provide solution to the failures if not the same government? A government that delay salaries repeatedly and people are shamelessly defending them? No wonder we continue being where we are and worse.

Again, non of the reasons you are fronting for your dear government are not mentioned in the article. The main reason is clearly stated as human ineptitude by some unserious morons holding positions, being paid and not doing their jobs. Instead of you to attack them, you are beating about the bush. They are the ones painting your government bad and not the victim, ASUU

Lol... ASUU is enforcing the "No pay, no work" rule & heavens didn't fall but when the role is reversed and FG decides to enforce "No work, no pay" if the need arises, that's why you'll see them crying like bush babies.

Notwithstanding, what's the reason for delaying their salaries? Was there any communication with the leadership of ASUU by the FG giving reasons why their members' salaries are delayed & apologize for the inconveniences?

In every conflict, communication is key!

No assu striker again No assu strike again yarimo and helinus what is going on again?

It's as if you are not abreast of what has been happening to the people on GIFMIS since the beginning of the year. Since January, no one was paid salary at the right time. It has been delaying for at least 8 days into the new month. That's what informed the decision by ASUU because it has become a concurrent menace.

So I got admission late into the university, but despite the fact thati got admission late, I was supposed to graduate at the age of 28, but here I am at the age of 30, and not yet a graduate.🤦🏾‍♂️

NNtv:
Well, I don't blame ASUU since FG enacted the no work no pay policy, ASUU should also not work if they are not paid on time.

Foe delaying payment for a week? Haba! Let reason well now

Delaying for a week ? And you want to shut work because of that?

The issue is many of you fail to read articles or read but don't comprehend. Go and read it again.
1. ASUU said this is not once or one off situation. It is repeatedly occuring with varying periods of delay.

2. They had meetings with the Minister of Education and the Accountant general over this to no avail.

So what are you talking about one week?

ASUU strikes are peak periods for this forum. I remember one which lasted a full nine months. Nairaland became so full that downtimes were a frequent occurrence.

let’s say the Grace and close on this particular topic ,,,,you gave the totally and appropriate comment on this issue ,,,God bless and Devil punish yeye ASUU and politicians

Chucks13:
Bro thank you. That is what the useless opposition are doing no wonder Buhari ignore them for 2 years, just June salary delay they started attacking dog shit.

Strike if you wan strike abeg infact go home if you like.

Nonsense!!!

the thing is not the first time ,the delay has been going on for several months, why will you pay other federal workers by 28th of a month and be paying university staff on the 11th of the following month, reason am na.

They want' no pay, no work ' now but during when PMB called for the 'no work,no pay' , they called his bluff..

The money was only being delayed and would be paid in full but of course they dnt care about the effects in the students!

ASUU...Are you guys not tired of going on strike everytime. Can't you as learned set of people look for better means to call the government to order.

Abeg na who dey in charge of education?
Tinubu d manage economy, Shetima d manage Security.

One of the most useless union in the country that has outlived it usefulness and the only weapon they have is strike .
Are not their members who collect millions from politicians during election cycle .
Some private institution might even be the ones sponsoring them to go in strike .

My own is f g should look for money to pay contractors in fct ,the delay is unbearable,since last year

What are you saying? You lock school because of the salary they are now paying every 30days from the day they paid the last payment.
If I collect my salary on 7th of last month and they still pay me 7th of this month ,abeg no be still 30 days be taht

No, it's never done like that. You are getting it upside down. People's appointment letters carry specific pay dates, and infact, if such a day falls on a weekend or public holiday, it is stated clearly that they will be paid a day earlier. Anything after that date without payment is simply delay in payment. In your logic now, assuming the government does not pay on the 7th again but on the 15th of next month, then continue again on the 15th, they should keep quiet because it is from 15th to 15th. Come on, you too look at it very well. Does it make sense? But that is exactly what happened. They are just shifting the salary pay date at will. Please, this failure is indefensible if we are sane and we want a sane Country as others. We should be bigger than this and people must be accountable on their jobs. Preparing and paying salaries should not be rocket science in this century

Tareq1105:
ASUU is playing politics. Just a 7 days delay in salary has turned to strike? ASUU is allowing itself to be a political pown. There are people in my office who are yet to get their June salary and they still come to work while Salary section is working to fix it.

Oga rest if you're misinformed. Last month salary was paid on the 13th. April salary dropped second week of May. March dropped first week of April. It's a pattern that has been happening. Other agencies get paid before the 30th or even 25th. Why are tertiary institutions left out? Some pple have payment obligations that must be met before the new month. How do they cope?
