University Of Ibadan Shot Down By Non-Academic Staff Over Non Payment Of Earned Allowance
According to sources, the non-academic staff of the university, comprising of Non-Academic Staff Union of Universities, NASU, Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities, SSANU, and the Non-Academic Technicians, NAT, decided to lock the institution’s gate to press home their demands.
The institution’s spokesperson, Tunji Oladejo said that the current issue was not a local one but as a result of a directive from the national bodies of the non-academic staff. According to him, the government recently allocated about N25 billion for payment of earned allowances of staff. However, a large chunk of the money which is about N18 billion was allocated to the academic staff of universities while the other unions were to share the remaining.
“It is true that there is an on-going strike action by the non academic staff in the university but it is not a local action. All the non academic staff of the nation’s Federal Universities has been directed to go on strike by the national bodies. We will keep you informed as situation unfolds in the premier university”, Oladejo said.
