The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has declared a two-week warning strike against non-payment of salaries of lecturers not enrolled in the Federal Government’s Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System.
The National President of the union, Biodun Ogunyemi, who disclosed this after the ASUU National Executive Council meeting held in Enugu, said the warning commenced on Monday to get federal government to implement all outstanding issues.
According Mr Ogunyemi, the issues include: the alleged imposition of the Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System, IPPIS, Poor funding and proliferation of State universities.
He added that the re-negotiation of the 2009 ASUU and FGN agreement, non-remittance of third party deduction of salaries of members and non-payment of February 2020 salaries amongst others, also dominated issues raised at the NEC meeting.
The ASUU president also called on the Federal Government to reshuffle the security architecture to address daunting challenges in the country and as well, tackle infrastructural decay, inadequate power supply amongst other issues.
