The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) has once more requested that the Federal Government pay the universities and inter-university centers the N50 billion in unpaid earned allowances. After its 43rd Regular National Executive Council meeting in Katsina state, the union issued the appeal.
The NEC, according to Mohammed Ibrahim, the national president of the SSANU, has noticed the long overdue delay in the payment of the unpaid N50 billion earned allowances, and they are pleading with the government to keep their word and not break their commitments to prevent industrial disputes in the system.
The union also demanded that some of its members who had already been paid or who hadn’t yet received all of their entitlements for the New National Minimum Wage be paid in arrears.
Ibrahim further criticized the Office of the Head of Service, saying that the Councils of Universities should be in charge of promoting members in universities and Inter-University Centers.
