The Federal Government on Thursday paid university lecturers half salary for October while remaining an outstanding of seven months, which it has refused to pay.

The payment of half salary to university lecturers is currently generating ripples on various campuses.

“When I got the alert, I was shocked about the amount credited to my . I had to call a colleague and she confirmed reduction in the amount paid her. I also informed my branch chairman about the development.

“This government is not sincere with it approach to the whole issue. Since we suspended the eight month-strike, lecturers are being treated like little kids without regards. I don’t feel like going to the class again but for the students, we have to do the needful, a senior UNILAG lecturer revealed.

One of ASUU zonal coordinators told Daily Sun that NEC meeting has been fixed for Monday and top on the agenda is the half paid salary.

“Many of our are agitated over the government action. If not for our students, I will push for strike. Our leaders must draw the attention of the House of Representatives Speaker, who mediated before we suspended the strike, the coordinator stated.

Group of insane pipu

No Work No Pay.

You can't stay at home for 5 months and be collecting salary.

This is insane

They cannot invest in education, but they have money to redesign currency & buy sniffer dogs. Currupt politicians whose certificates are questionable will never understand what education is. Season 2 of ASUU strike looming under one year & in the space of nearly 2 weeks.

Thunder fire fgFG

[quote][/quote]

My colleague, PhD senior lecturer for 10 years was paid 142k. After calculations, we discovered that the government prorated the payment for 18 days.
THIS IS TO SAY THAT, A SENIOR STAFF - PHD HOLDER THAT HAS SERVED THE SYSTEM FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS CAN NOT EVEN BOAST OF 300K SALARY IN A MONTH.

US dollar today, Friday 4th of November is ₦880.
When this useless cow was elected in 2015, dollar was just 200+, today it's X 4 and before he leaves, it will definitely be over 1000 and x 6.

280k salary in a month is barely $320!!!
Indeed, Nigeria is doomed under these cows' rulership. Fool ani fools.

Students should just zero their minds that they can never get the best out of any lecturer again. Unless that lecturer is a thief or a FOOL.

AFTER 8 MONTHS OF STARVATION, THIS IS THE BEST FG CAN DO.

As e dey pain dem...e go dey sweet Buhari

Hope Another strike is not loading oooo

Federal government winning 1-0

Una de craze

unfortunately, they already lost the right to a long strike after calling off that strike, it should take them a fresh 3 to 4 months from now on to initiate and embark on another strike, legally..

Some people are rejoicing over this. Well, FG is winning the whole country with their insensitive actions.

Na all of us dey suffer am

Hmm

You worked for 18days u 're expecting 30days salary

No be juju be that ?

Na wah to this country.

Buhari and ApC have completely finished the country, I've seen enough at the gate and I'm tired

Buhari new name is " Bubu Hafusa" Lolz. The old sticken man has derailed himself in all fake promises to the extent of paying half salaries to ASUU while he's enjoying full med health trips to U.k at any given time he fell ill. Shame on buhari, tueh!

Should they go on strike at this time, it is going to be a big shame on them. They could have chosen not to resume than keep risking the lives of students making them travel when they know their demands are yet to be met.

When u didn't lecture for those months..


Half is better than none..

The truth is Buhari and APC do not value education, just turn that ASUU to MACBAN and see how money will flow for all the ...

When you elect people without education or value for education na wetin una go dey see be this
Instead make buhari build a mind blowing hospital in abuja and get himself checked there, na to dey junket upandan wasting our taxes

Omo wahala loading

Nice moves
