Protest at University of Calabar
From Abuja, Ilorin, Lagos, Ibadan, Calabar and the nation over, the laborers,
under the aegis of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities, SSANU
and the Non-Academic Staff Union, NASU, noticed that without their requests
being met, the desire for returning colleges in the nation following quite a
while of conclusion because of the COVID-19 pandemic would not appear. Laborers

Committee, JAC, before the Senate Building, were tended to by their

NASU. The pioneers said the dissent included laborers on evaluation level 1-14
and in this manner held that any specialist in that class discovered working in
his/her office be driven out. They consequently went into the Senate Building, which
houses the workplace of the Vice Chancellor and drove out the laborers. In any
case, the VC, Prof. Oluwatoyin Ogundipe, was not in the workplace. The laborers
at that point walked to the fundamental door of the organization which they
hindered with their vehicles.
As per Sowunmi and Ajibade, the Federal Government hoodwinked them into taking
on the IPPIS. "No laborer can say this is the amount the individual
procures a month. The irregularities are too much. Adequately amusing, the
IPPIS has been gone to a distribution center of our authentic assets, as
derivations are not dispatched. When did it become a Central Bank? "We are
staff and not slaves. At this very moment, more than 10 of our previous
individuals have passed on while sitting tight for their privileges. The public
authority has not been earnest in its dealings with us," Ajibade said. On
his part, Sowunmi said tragically a few people in government felt it is smarter
to spoil one association out of the four staff associations in the college framework.
"How might we have four associations in the college framework and the
public authority discharges N40 billion for recompenses and one association is
permitted to take 75 percent of the cash? "We won't permit this to proceed
and with this our dissent, we are stopping such a bad form," he said. The
laborers additionally required the sack of the Ministers of Education and
Labor, Malam Adamu and Dr Chris Ngige. Their grouse against the clergymen is
that they are fuelling the victimization them by the school personnel. Dissent
incapacitates UNIABUJA At the University of Abuja, UNIABUJA, the Treasurer of
NASU in the college, Sadiat Hassan, said the associations would continue on
inconclusive mechanical activity if the public authority neglected to address
the issues that constrained them to go on dissent. "We are challenging the
anomalies in IPPIS installment and requesting the renegotiation of our 2009
understanding which has been long late.
"We are additionally challenging the non-installment of our acquired
recompenses and bad form that was finished by the Federal Government in the
circulation of the procured remittances since they gave a specific association
75 percent and different associations 25 percent. "This is against the
arrangement held in October (a year ago) that the cash was for all the
associations. Along these lines, we anticipate that them should do equity to
everyone since this is acquired stipends," she said. UNIBEN, UNILORIN, not
forgot about At the University of Benin, UNIBEN, the Chairman of UNIBEN
SSANU/Joint Association Committee, Comrade Bedrock Osewa said "They
(government) need to strangulate us so we won't play out our duties to
individuals. The dissent is to sharpen the general population and told
government that we can not be had a good time with. "You (government)
can't sign and won't obey arrangements. Furthermore, the public authority has
likewise neglected to reconstitute board for renegotiation of forthcoming
arrangements". The branch executive of SSANU, University of Ilorin,
Comrade Olumayowa Oyedepo tending to columnists, for the dissenters censured
the disposition of the government towards the government assistance of their
part Protest is effective, SSANU Speaking on the dissent, President of Senior
Staff Association of Nigeria Universities, SSANU, Comrade Mohammed Haruna

Association of Nigeria Universities is significantly to commute home a point
and to pull in the consideration of government and the overall population to
the way that there is an infringement of the Memorandum of Understanding
endorsed among us and the public authority. "And furthermore there has
been an Agreement endorsed among SSANU and the Federal Government path back to
2009. Presently our significant essence is that such MoU has been abused on the
grounds that there was a timetable of about fourteen days from that twentieth
of October 2020 when it was endorsed among us and government issues, for
example, the abnormalities in the installment of our pay rates that is
currently through the IPPIS, and afterward the disruption of our positions by
the school personnel and obviously non-installment of privilege for our
resigned individuals.
"There are around seven things we have recorded in the MoU. "I can say that with no dread of logical inconsistency that the dissent is successful in light of the fact that we have begun accepting calls and the consideration is currently moved towards having these issues settled, we are not loath to having these issues settled in light of the fact that our own is anything but an association that will jump at the chance to make things hard for the general population particularly guardians. "We likewise have our kids in such colleges so for us we are trusting and we are cheerful that administration will do the needful before the finish of the three days fight yet on the off chance that that isn't done, which we are not appealing to God for by Thursday we will have the option to tell the entire world our next line of activity." Asked if there was an observing instrument to guarantee consistence, he said,"We have additionally guaranteed that in each branch there are checking groups to guarantee that the dissent is compelling and workplaces are shut for the following three years so individuals from the college the board will realize that our privileges are being stomped all over by the people pulling the strings. "In the event that the public authority stays resolute and the issues are not tended to, JAC will make a move on Thursday."
