ASUU - Our National Executive Council, (NEC) Will Decide

The National President of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke, has said the National Executive Council, NEC, of the union will decide whether members should go on strike or not over some demands made.

He said the union is still consulting and sensitising members on the issues involved. Speaking in a chat with Vanguard, he said the declaration of Monday, February 7 as a lecture free day was to sensitise members and also show the displeasure of the union with the way government was handling the matter.

On the claim by the government that it is experiencing paucity of funds and might not meet all the demands of the union, Osodeke noted that everything boils down to prioritizing issues.

According to him, not all the demands have to be met spending money, as some are policy matters, citing the demand of replacing the Integrated Personnel Payroll Information System, IPPIS, with the University Transparency and Accountability System, UTAS.
