The Federal Government has directed that no striking ASUU lecturer is to be privy to his/her salary until they get back to work.
This directive was contained in a memo by the National Universities Commission to universities’ VCs which was signed by the Director, Research, Information and Technology, Dr S. B Ramon-Yusuf
The memo read in part: “In view of the current Industrial action by the Academic Staff Union of Universities, the Federal Government has directed that there shall be no payment of any form of salaries and allowances to the staff on strike in federal and inter-varsity centres.

“Consequently, I am to direct vice-chancellors to apply the “No-work-no-pay” rule. However, universities and inter-varsity centres are to pay salaries and allowances to non-teaching staff. All Vice-Chancellors and Directors of Centers should note that the salaries to staff on strike from whatever source of funds shall be viewed as violation of extant rules and directive of the Federal Government of Nigeria.”
Chairman of the University of Ibadan chapter of ASUU, Dr. Deji Omole is of the opinion that the conduct of the Federal government towards lecturers is disappointing and that it was beyond him how the Government can owe years worth of salaries and still expect devotion from the lecturers while they enjoy the resources of the country.
