ASUU Strike May End This Week - FG

The Federal Government has expressed hope that the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) would call off its ongoing four-weeks warning strike this week.

Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige, said this when he addressed journalists after the last marathon conciliation meeting between the government and ASUU.

Ngige said the meeting agreed on many things and put timelines for the implementation of the agreements. According to him, ASUU agreed to go back to their members with the government offers and report back to him before this week runs out.

The Minister reiterated that many of the items in the 2020 Memorandum of Action (MOA) had been dealt with exhaustively while some were being addressed.

He said, “We have only one or two areas that are new. One of the new areas is the renegotiation of the conditions of service, which is called the 2009 agreement. An agreement was reached in 2009 that their conditions of service would be reviewed every five years. It was done in 2014.

: The National Executive Council (NEC) of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has officially resolved that there will be no suspension of the ongoing strike until the renegotiated agreement is implemented.

Earlier today, the federal government inaugurated a seven-person committee and gave them three months to conclude the renegotiation with ASUU.

Obviously, there will be no break as the current warning strike will diverge into a total and indefinite strike once it expires.

Outcome from Yesterday's Meeting Between ASUU & FG

ASUU Agrees To Report Govt’s Proposal To Members, May Resume Soon

ASUU president declined elaborate comment on the conclusions but said his team would report the proposals to members before taking a stand. After almost eight hours of an intensive closed-door meeting on Tuesday, both the Nigerian government team and the leadership of the striking Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) emerged at about 11 p.m. with an indication of possible resolution of the areas of conflict between the two parties.

The president of ASUU, Emmanuel Osodeke, declined elaborate comment on their conclusions but said his team would report to the members on the government’s proposals and later revert to the government.

But the minister of labour and employment, Chris Ngige, said both parties agreed on a lot of things, and that ASUU was expected to “talk to its members, show them the proposal that has been offered by the government so that they can call off the strike”.

Earned Academic Allowances (EAA) and revitalisation fund for universities were the two items on the agenda for Tuesday’s meeting.

FG Resumes Negotiation With ASUU

The Federal Government on Tuesday resumed negotiations with the Academic Staff Union of Universities.

Tuesday’s meeting is the second of its kind since the academics declared a one-month warning strike three weeks ago.

The academics are seeking improved welfare, revitalisation of public universities and university autonomy among other demands.

ASUU representatives at Tuesday’s meeting said they were no longer interested in signing a memorandum of understanding.

The Federal Government on Tuesday resumed negotiations with the Academic Staff Union of Universities.

Tuesday’s meeting is the second of its kind since the academics declared a one-month warning strike three weeks ago.

The academics are seeking improved welfare, revitalisation of public universities and university autonomy among other demands.

ASUU representatives at Tuesday’s meeting said they were no longer interested in signing a memorandum of understanding.

They demanded action on past agreements.

Meanwhile, the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, expressed optimism that the impasse will be resolved.

Both parties disagreed on who is delaying the evaluation process for the University Transparency Accountability Solution (UTAS), ASUU’s preferred payroll system.

While the Minister said the union is delaying the process of finalizing with the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) on areas where harmonization is needed, the academics insisted that NITDA was unprepared for them.

Disagreement over a payroll system is one critical factor that the academics have listed for embarking on the latest strike.
