No Work, No Pay, Jonathan Stops ASUU Salary

As the ongoing strike by Academic Staff Union of

Universities, ASUU, enters the fourth month, there are strong

indications that the Federal Government has commenced the

implementation of the "No Work, No Pay" rule.

Vanguard gathered from a reliable source at the National

Universities Commission, NUC, that the government has passed a

directive to the various universities governing councils to stop

payment of salaries of the striking lecturers.

The ASUU Zonal Chairman in Abuja, Mr Clement Chup confirmed

this yesterday after a zonal conference of ASUU, University of

Abuja chapter, which took place at the Gwagwalada campus to

review the nationwide strike.

He said his colleagues were yet to receive their September

salaries.

According to him, "we have resorted to other welfare

strategies to cope with the effect of the strike, particularly to

contain the various attempts by government to break the

resolve of the union. 

The Federal Government has through the

National Universities Commission, directed universities to stop

the payment of our salaries effective September this year and

since then our salaries have not been paid.

"Part of the welfare strategy, involved distributing food items,

giving out soft loans and cash advances to members."

He urged members of the public to ignore the rumour that the

strike has been called off. He said: "Nigerians should disregard

rumours making the rounds that the three months old strike has

been called off", adding that "the strike continues until the

government demonstrates a positive inclination towards

implementing the 2009 agreements and the 2012 Memorandum

of Understanding signed by both parties."

President Jonathan was reported to have said he'll end ASUU strike soon. Probably,  this is the tactic he has in place to end the strike,  like if they weren't paid,  they will return to class.
