ASUU, FG to Reconvene Next Week As Efforts Aimed At Finding Solution To The Lingering Strike By The Lecturers Continue.
It was gathered that ASUU is still consulting with its organs on the latest offer by the Federal Government to the striking University teachers.
LSG recalls that The Federal Government has accepted ASUU’s demand that they be exempted from the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS) pending the approval of their proposed payment system, the University Transparency and Accountability Solution (UTAS).
FG has also reconstituted a committee to renegotiate the 2009 agreement between the Federal Government and universities-based unions, as demanded by ASUU.
The Previous meeting held by the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU and The negotiating board of the FG ended mum as none of the two parties gave a report from their meeting. It is assumed that the Union is likely to suspend the Nationwide strike by the next negotiating session with the FG.
