The Academic Staff Union of Universities, Owerri Zone, has vowed to go on indefinite strike if the Federal Government does not follow the 2009 agreement.<\/p>\n

The union announced this at a press conference on Monday at Awka’s Nnamdi Azikiwe University.<\/p>\n

Nnamdi Azikiwe University in Awka, Federal University of Technology in Owerri, Imo State University in Owerri, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University in Igbariam, and Michael Okpara University of Agriculture in Umudike were among the union leaders present.<\/p>\n

They said, \u201cthe magnanimity of ASUU that resulted in various MOUs and MOAs arising from the 2009 agreement has been spurned by the Federal Government.\u201d<\/p>\n

The ASUU Zonal Coordinator, Mr. Uzo Onyebinama, stated that some lecturers are being owed as much as 10 months\u2019 salary.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we speak now, the Federal Government is in arrears of major components of the agreement, and that includes funding for the revitalization of public universities, earned academic allowances, and the renegotiation of the 2009 agreement.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe consequences of the Federal Government\u2019s refusal to implement the 2009 agreement<\/a> is that the union has resolved to go on an indefinite strike any moment and once it begins, it will not stop until all agreements are fulfilled.\u201d<\/p>\n

Also, the zonal Coordinator of the Benin Zone ASUU, Prof. Fred Esumeh, said the impending strike by the nation\u2019s university lecturers is to draw government attention to their plights and not to derail academic activities.<\/p>\n

Esumeh said, \u201cStrike is less frequent in the western world because their governments act. But here in Nigeria, you have to go on strike frequently before the government can act.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Nigerian universities are no longer attractive to foreign lecturers, including those from neighboring countries.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is due to the prevailing slave wage where the highest-ranked professor earns less than a thousand dollars monthly.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Coordinator, Ibadan zone, ASUU, Prof Oyebamiji Oyegoke, also called on Nigerians to intervene \u201cat this critical moment before our members withdraw their services.\u201d<\/p>\n

He noted that 53 lecturers of the University of Ibadan and several others in state universities, including the Ebonyi State University, have not been paid salaries<\/a> for more than one year.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cFifty-three lecturers of the University of Ibadan have not been paid their salaries since December 2020 till date, while lecturers in the Ebonyi State University have not been paid their salaries for months and the state governor has established two more universities without paying the lecturers of the existing one.\u201d<\/p>\n

Oyegoke said ASUU was not making fresh demands but demanding full implementation of the 2020 MoA freely signed by the Federal Government and the union.<\/p>\n

He said:<\/p>\n

\u201cOur baseline is the full implementation of the 2020 MoA freely signed by the Federal Government and the union. This calls for a lot of concern. There\u2019s no commitment to the agreement entered into. The government is not sensitive to the welfare of workers. That\u2019s why we\u2019re using these channels to sensitise the people so that they won\u2019t see us as using strike as the only tool of fighting for our demands<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile we commend interventions of notable Nigerians in the matter, it should be stated here that it is about actions and not deliberations. These are no new demands. Some of our members have not been paid salaries since December last year and they\u2019re still working. It shows commitment on our part.<\/p>\n

\u201cSelective treatment of issues in dispute instead of a comprehensive approach will no longer be acceptable to our members. We shall no longer take the issue of the welfare of our members for granted. Any treatment of MoA of 2020 that precludes its full implementation and rejection of the IPPIS will be incomplete. If it has taken ASUU\u2019s position of resuming a suspended strike action to rouse the government from its sleep of non-implementation of the MoA of 2020, one needs to ask how many of such reminders should ASUU give before its demands are met.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is on the basis of the failure of the government to meet up with the promises made as attested to in the MoA of 2020 that the union is calling on Nigerians to intervene at this critical moment.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
