The Academic Staff Union of
Universities, University of Ibadan chapter, are threatening to embark on strike
if the shortfall in the payment of salaries and allowances of its members
continued.
The union said it would stop any
attempt by the Federal
Government to increase the suffering of its members by
reducing their entitlements.
Chairman of ASUU in the school,
Dr Deji Omole, who stated this in Ibadan, said over N140million was deducted from
the personnel fund sent to the university by the Federal Government in the
month of February.
The Senior Staff Association of
Nigerian Universities and the Non-academic Staff Union of Universities also
allegedly experienced huge shortfall of fund from the Federal Government.
The union boss further called on the
Minister of Education to look into the issue before universities would be
thrown into another round of crisis.
