Students of the Taraba State University, Jalingo yesterday blocked some of the major entry points into the city, demanding the payment of 10-month salary arrears the Taraba Government is owing to staff of the university.
The unions had yesterday morning locked examination halls over non-payment of their entitlements as students who prepared for the examination were left stranded. “Instead of addressing our demands and secure our future, the governor ordered police to teargas us on our way to the Government House to register our protest,” one the students said.
Similarly, the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to Governor Ishaku, Mr. Bala Dan-Abu, had said payment of salaries had been the priority of the administration and the governor would do everything possible to address the claim of the protesting staff members. Fawale said that the reversal of the suspension order earlier placed on the union was based on interventions in order to allow for further consultations.
