Addressing reporters at the Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA) yesterday, SSANU National Vice President, Alfred Jimoh said if the government releases the N30 billion, it would be added to the N4.6 billion shared among the three non-teaching staff.
Jimoh said: “Government should release more funds to take care of the arrears of the Earned Allowance of the three non-teaching staff of the Nigerian universities and to commence the immediate implementation of the allowances to forestall further accumulation of the arrears.”
The SSANU boss, who accused the government of
using divide and rule system among the universities’ workers, declared
that the ongoing strike would be total until their demands are met.
