Asuu gives fg six new conditions to end strike
It seems like you're referring to the ongoing strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) in Nigeria. According to recent reports, ASUU has given the Federal Government (FG) six new conditions to end the strike.
Here are the six conditions:
- Renegotiation of the 2009 ASUU-FG Agreement: ASUU is demanding a renegotiation of the 2009 agreement, which covers issues like salary structure, promotion, and career development.
- Implementation of the University Transparency and Accountability Solution (UTAS): ASUU wants the FG to implement UTAS, a new payment platform designed to address issues with the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS).
- Payment of outstanding salaries and allowances: ASUU is seeking the payment of outstanding salaries and allowances owed to its members, including the arrears of the Earned Academic Allowances (EAA).
- Establishment of a Visitation Panel to universities: ASUU wants the FG to establish a Visitation Panel to universities to address issues like infrastructure development, staff welfare, and academic standards.
- Release of funds for revitalization of universities: ASUU is demanding the release of funds for the revitalization of universities, including the provision of infrastructure, equipment, and other resources.
- Establishment of a Special Intervention Fund for universities: ASUU wants the FG to establish a Special Intervention Fund to support universities in addressing their financial challenges and improving their overall performance.
These conditions are seen as crucial to resolving the ongoing strike, which has been ongoing since February 2022. The FG has been urged to address these concerns to ensure the strike is called off and academic activities can resume in Nigerian universities.
