FG Drags ASUU To Industrial Court, Says Negotiations Have Failed by ogaontop(m): 9:44am On Sep 10, 2022 |
The raging dispute between the federal government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) that has kept many universities shut for more than seven months will shift to the Industrial court next Monday. ASUU had embarked on strike since February 15 to protest alleged decay of infrastructure at the various institutions, as well as neglect of the welfare of its members. A reliable source at the Federal Ministry of Labour told THISDAY last night that the ministry’s Trade Dispute Department had filed a case before the Industrial Arbitration Court in Abuja and that the hearing would commence next Monday. According to the source, “The federal government has filed a case at the Industrial Court challenging the continued strike by the university teachers. This is in conformity with Section 17 of the Trade Dispute Act.” There have been series of negotiations between the federal government and the ASUU leadership but all ended in stalemate without a tangible outcome. However, talks between the federal government and ASUU finally hit the rocks last Tuesday after both sides met at the National University Commission’s office in Abuja. The federal government had said that it would not sign any other agreement it cannot implement. Minister of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu, disclosed this during a meeting of Pro-Chancellors and Vice Chancellors of Federal Universities, held at the NUC’s office. Adamu said President Muhammadu Buhari had warned the government’s team involved in the negotiation with ASUU against signing an agreement that the government would not be able to fulfil. The minister said the government had offered the union a 23.5 per cent salary increase “for all categories of the workforce in federal universities, except for the professorial cadre which will enjoy a 35 per cent upward review. He said the government had also promised that N150 billion “shall be provided for in the 2023 Budget as funds for the revitalisation of federal universities, to be disbursed to the Institutions in the First Quarter of the year.” Also, the government said N50 billion would be provided “for in the 2023 Budget for the payment of outstanding arrears of earned academic allowances, to be paid in the first quarter of the year.” However, ASUU and three other university unions have rejected the offer, describing it as “inadequate to meet their respective demands needed to tackle the challenges confronting the university system.” Source: https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2022/09/10/fg-drags-ASUU-to-industrial-court-says-negotiations-have-failed/amp/ 2 Likes 1 Share |

what they should have done since if ASUU fails to reopen university when industrial court orders them to by next week. FG can go ahead to proscribe their union and federal ministry of education can employ new lecturers. good move 12 Likes 1 Share |

Laggafin:The fact is that they are not giving him the kind of support he gave to Buhari in 2014/2015. And he should have noticed that. Most top Northern governors appear calm and sitting on the fence! They are dangling in-between Atiku and Tinubu. You haven't heard of APC chairman of a certain northern state suspended for anti party activities? Conclusion, Buhari has done overtly bad and has no selling point! |

IamDietiesGod:If FG is interested in ending this strike soon, they know exactly what to do, -pay the backlog of salaries, with the 23.5 to 35% increment for professors! Saying the increment will take effect from next year and you will not pay them 7 months backlog is trouble! Of course you don't expect them to agree to that! Many are in debts already and may not even have the money for normal academic activities and research without those salaries! 3 Likes |

These bastards have eventually allowed this their madness spiral out of control. When the whole matter began, the useless FG and it's jamboree of confused officials all feigned ignorance. And ASUU, they've become a nightmare for students, their parents and even traders who sell on campus. I hate this country. |

This should be a good move in the right direction. We have had enough of ASUU rascality. Are they the only union in Nigeria? Nigerian students are being traumatised daily and ASUU is acting as if nothing is going on. Can they be considerate and give the FG the benefits of doubt instead of wanting to destroy everyone's life. The FG should as a matter of urgency takes drastic actions to deliver Nigerian students from the grip of ASUU who are acting as intelligent bandits. 5 Likes |

internationalman:Even though it's clear thaer that we are being governed by a bunch of careless and wicked people, calling off the strike won't be "playing their game". ASUU own don too much. They compare their pay to their counterparts in the west but do they compare their coats of living too? So they compare to their costs of training? Wages are generally lower in this part of the world. So is the cost of living. ASUU should be fighting for better leadership if they truly had the interest of the country at heart. They should have mobilised against these tyrants in power. 3 Likes |
