Fed. Govt. Is Insisting ASUU Can Not Dictate Payment Platform It
Minister of State for Education, Emeka Nwajiuba, is insisting that the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) cannot dictate to the federal government the platform to use in paying their salaries.
Nwajuiba stated this in Abuja on Wednesday, shortly after receiving his presidential nomination form of the All Progressives Congress (APC) purchased for him by a Group
The Minister appealed to ASUU to return to the classroom, assuring that the government was working to address some of their concerns.
He said, “It is impractical and incongruous to continuously expect that somebody who is paid a salary continues to dictate to the someone who pays him: ‘This is how you must pay me’. This is where this anomaly is.”
“We have pleaded with ASUU that ‘If there are any areas where your salaries fall short, kindly address them within the ambit of IPPIS because that’s what the government has now,” the minister added.
