Akwa Ibom varsity lecturers defy ‘no work, no pay’ threat, insist strike continues - Daily Post Nigeria

Lecturers of the Akwa Ibom State University have defied the ‘no work, no pay’ threat, refusing to resume work.

The Vice Chancellor, Prof. Nse Essien, had directed all the staff members to resume duties on Monday, June 7, 2021 or risk their June salary while urging students to return to school for full academic activities.

“I give the Akwa Ibom State University N327 million every month as a grant. Also, going by the figures I have, lecturers in AKSU receive the highest salaries anywhere in the country. “What the governor went on air to say is not what we will contest, it is left for the management to explain, but, what we know is that the university has been receiving the sum of N250 million as monthly subvention as at 2019,” he said.

The students have expressed displeasure over the development lamenting that they would be the ones to bear the brunt of the crisis. He noted that the House was concerned that the strike had adversely affected the completion agenda of the present government, in which education formed a critical point.
