The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), has accused the Federal Government of breaching a “no victimisation clause” agreed upon during the dialogue that led to the suspension of its strike.
Speaking on Sunday, the Chairman of University of Ibadan (UI) chapter of the union, Professor Ayo Akinwole, claimed that the Federal Government and the Accountant-General of the Federation were victimising members by allegedly refusing to pay them “salaries running between two to 10 months despite suspending the strike.”
The alleged refusal, according to ASUU, could lead to another strike in future, stating that while members “are back to their duty posts, the harsh economy being experienced due to unpaid salaries and non-refund of deducted check-off dues will affect productivity.”
