BREAKING: Varsity workers warm up for strike over unpaid wage
This occurred against a presidential order that the lowest pay permitted by law would be executed by December 31, 2019.
A source near the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) revealed to The Nation that the college laborers were unsettled that they were yet to appreciate the lowest pay permitted by law when different specialists had been getting a charge out of it.
The source stated: "Staff of every single Federal college the nation over are yet to get the new the lowest pay permitted by law. We know that different specialists have been paid."
Inquired as to whether it was just ASUU individuals that had not been paid, the source said none of the colleges' laborers had been paid the lowest pay permitted by law.
An instructor at a Federal college disclosed to The Nation that he didn't have the foggiest idea why teachers had not been paid the lowest pay permitted by law.
"We have not been paid and we don't have a clue why. On the off chance that they state it is a result of Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS), shouldn't something be said about other college laborers who have enlisted into the plan as of now? Why have they not been paid?
"We are holding gatherings in regards to the issue and examining the following stage to take. Instruct them to pay us our lowest pay permitted by law in such a case that we take to the streets again now, Nigerians will yell."
The teacher said ASUU might be compelled to stand firm on non-installment of the new pay. ASUU President Prof. Biodun Ogunyumi couldn't be gone after his remark.
He didn't answer calls put through to his cell phone the previous evening. In any case, his partner in the Senior Staff Association of Nigeria Universities (SSANU), Samson Ugokwe, affirmed the improvement.
He said it was because of enrolment of college laborers into the IPPIS conspire.
