The Federal Government says the meeting with the Academic Staff Union of Universities aimed at evaluating the implementation of the Memorandum of Action entered into by the parties is successful.
”If successful, it will eliminate the challenges posed by the peculiarities of the university system to the current payment platform,” he said. “The report has been turned in, deliberated upon and both the Education Ministry and the NUC have promised to write to the Accountant General of the Federation next week for the release of the money to the NEEDS Special Account for onward disbursement to universities shortly,” he said.
”This effort was commended as all the parties agreed that mushrooming and proliferation of state universities, some of which mock the ideals of an ivory tower, should stop. ”We expressed our displeasure that these things are happening – amputation of salaries, not-too-clear, foggy things happening over peoples monthly emoluments. So we have asked IPPIS and ASUU to work together over this,” he said.
