The Academic Staff Union of Universities has declared that the union will not stand idly by and allow the university system in Nigeria to be destroyed by both the federal and state governments.
Chairman of the University of Ibadan chapter, Professor Ayo Akinwole, made this declaration when he led other members of the union to protest against the precarious conditions under which lecturers work. Akinwole, speaking during the protest on Thursday, emphasized that the union has a duty to defend university education in Nigeria and safeguard knowledge production for future generations.
Chairman of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology , Ogbomoso, Babatunde Lawal, added his voice, urging both federal and state governments to prioritize funding for tertiary education. He added that the union's demands are legitimate, stressing 's ongoing rejection of IPPIS. “IPPIS violates university autonomy and the Acts establishing universities. In addition to this illegality, IPPIS is notorious for its fraudulent practices that impose undue hardship on Nigerian academics and disrupt university operations in payroll management. '
continues to reject IPPIS. We are concerned that more than four months after the government directed federal universities and other tertiary institutions to exit the discredited payment platform, our members’ salaries are still arbitrarily withheld. Moreover, third-party deductions remain unreleased. The platform, under the guise of ‘New IPPIS,’ continues to be used contrary to the Federal Executive Council’s directive.
