ASUU’s battle against payroll needless, says Buhari
Members of the union were told by President Muhammadu Buhari to stop their fight. The President, who was represented by the Executive Secretary, National Universities Commission , Prof Abubakar Rasheed, spoke at the 14th Convocation of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University , Awka, Anambra State.
“I assure you all that IPPIS is not intended to trample upon university autonomy nor is it designed to subsume the university into the civil service. The president renewed his administration’s commitment to working with patriotic elements to significantly improve Nigeria’s fortune and negotiate a brighter future for all, especially the youths.
Attempts to get officials of the Office of the Accountant General to either confirm or deny the allegation was unsuccessful as the IPPIS director Mr. Olufehinti Olusegun did not answer phone calls or reply messages sent to him.
