The Zonal Coordinator, Ibadan Zone of ASUU, Prof. Ade Adejumo revealed this recently at a press conference in Ibadan.
According to him, the government has been given enough time to address lingering issues, so Nigerians should keep compelling FG to release withheld salaries of our members, remit check-off dues of the union to the rightful owner.
He added that ASUU is still on strike because of the survival of the University system where many Nigerians still have our children as students.
His words, “It was a patriotic act aimed at resolving the issues so that our students would be in school any time the lockdown was lifted.
“Some people have been wondering why ASUU is on strike again. The simple answer is that ASUU is on strike because of the survival of the University system where many of us still have our children as students.
“ASUU is on strike in order to restore the past glory of public universities and address infrastructural decay and deficit in our institutions.”
“ASUU is on strike for the legitimate dues of its members who are the least paid in the tertiary education sub-sector.”
“At this stage of the struggle, Nigerians are urged to compel the government to release withheld salaries of our members, remit check-off dues of the union to the rightful owner.
“Government should also speed up the process of testing the integrity of the University Transparency and Accountability Solution (UTAS) so that it can be deployed for payment beginning from January 2021.
“We are ready to suspend the strike as our children to are tired of staying at home but we cannot work on empty stomachs.”
