Newsonline reports that the Federal Government has revealed that other academic unions that negotiated with it including the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities, (SANNU), Non-Academic Staff Union of Education and Associated Institutions, (NASU) and the National Association of Academic Technologists (NAAT) will resume work in the next one week.
This was disclosed by the Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, on Thursday, at the State House Ministerial Briefing organised by the Presidential Communications Team in Abuja.
The FG stated that ASUU won’t resume because it is yet to accept FG’s offers and is yet to call of its strike.
The Minister said that ASUU insisting on being paid six months’ salaries of the strike period is what is stalling the negotiations between the Federal Government and the union, urging that the government is committed to its ‘no work no pay’ rule to serve as deterrence to other unions
The Minister expressed optimism that other unions like Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities, (SANNU), Non-Academic Staff Union of Education and Associated Institutions, (NASU) and the National Association of Academic Technologists (NAAT) will resume work in the next one week.
The minister also dismissed media reports that the president gave him a two-week ultimatum to resolve the misunderstanding between ASUU and the Federal Government.
