ASUU STRIKE update
Following strike action declared via the academic staff Union of Universities (ASUU) about weeks ago over the non-implementation and demands of the government, academic activities had been grounded at Ekiti state university (EKSU), among others, resulting to students travelling back home after a few weeks of resumption while students and parents are left unhappy with the decisions made through ASUU.
Ekiti state government have now made matters worse by not having a peaceful negotiation with ASUU some days back. The Union came down low to negotiate with the government but were left scrambled through the Governor. This now leaves the possibility of the strike been called off on Monday to be very low.
The Union thereby announces that if their demands aren't met by the government, the strike won’t be called off.
speaking with corporate Press, a lecturer noted that lecturers are been paid half salary since last year due to the fact that there have been deductions of Cooperative arrears and Pension funds from their salaries with out remitting the deducted amounts to the Cooperative and Pension Fund administration respectively, and also the increment of tax by government which isn't encouraging.
ASUU have now demanded that the government remits both salary and Cooperative up to date (December), whereby the last payment for the Cooperative was April and net salary was in October. they also demanded the reversal of their tax funds and that the percentage of pension funds deducted from their revenue ought to not be deducted any longer since the funds are not been remitted to the Pension Board.
