FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO MEET ASSU OVER THE ONGOING STRIKE

  The National president of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke, said the  union will meet with the federal government today to speak on the issue of the ongoing strike by university teachers. The national president of ASSU made this known while speaking on Politics Today, a Channels Television’s political show.

He said the union was willing to call off the strike if the Federal Government agreed to its demands at today’s meeting.“If we go into that meeting tomorrow and the government says, what you have bargained for, we are willing to sign, the strike will be called off,” he said.

The president had given the Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu Adamu two weeks to address the demands of ASUU, after the submission of the ASUU report by the Briggs committee. 

Osodeke said that the government used the university unions to commit fraudulent activities in the guise of Integrated Payroll and Personnel information system.

 ‘’We have been shouting all along that IPPIS is a fraud, we have told them that for 16 years they siphoned our money with IPPIS, they punished our members because of it. Now, they know, some foreign bodies forced it on the people.’’ He said.
