has stated that efforts to resolve the crisis between
ASUU and the Federal Government was stalled due
to the fact that the union is demanding N248 Billion
as payment for earned allowance.
He mentioned that among the 8 demands presented
by ASUU, it is only the issue of earned allowance
that is still unresolved.
According to him, the Federal Government will not
be able to cough out such an amount of money at
the moment considering that the economy of the
nation is currently in recession.
He further stated that the government proposed to
be paying a certain amount to ASUU on a monthly
basis pending when the first tranche of money
earlier disbursed to ASUU for that purpose will be
audited.
However, ASUU brought up a counter proposal
which made the two parties to retreat to allow
further consultations after which they will
reconvene to continue negotiation and hopefully
- resolve the issue.
