President Muhammadu Buhari has said that no civil servant (members of the Association of Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) on the payroll of the Federal Government will receive salary henceforth without enrolment on the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System.

He stated this on Thursday in his annual speech to the joint session of the two Chambers of the National Assembly which is currently ongoing.

In the highlight of the 2021 Appropriation budget being presented to the National Assembly, he explained that all sectors of the economy would get attention in 2021 budget allocation, but reiterated the Federal Government’s position on payment of salaries of University lecturers, saying there was no going back on the decision to use the IPPIS for payment of all categories of civil servants.

He advised the leadership of ASUU to understand the position of government, which he believes would remove fraud from the educational institutions.

The ministry of education again had advised ASUU to go into farming as an alternative for income.


This back and forth between FG and ASUU only spells doom for the Nigerian student as ASUU is ready to continue the strike till next year.

Most of the students around me are not even in d mood of resuming till next year. A number of them have engaged in learning one skill/training.

Well there are students who want to resume.

So when everything is over anyone who wants to stay at home can do so

arrrgh!!!! I am supposed to graduate next month, but ... m frustrated!

*EVERY YEAR over 25,000 students apply to the university of first choice and nation's pride but less than 8000 will be admitted*

*Ask yourself if you want to be among the smaller population or larger population.......your choice ?*

*Here at AROMATICS TUTORIAL, we will be helping just 50 students get admission this year(100% admission guaranteed )....*

If we don't get serious, at this rate even next year we won't resume

My own opinion is that I can see the whole thing ending bad for poor youths of this country
The strike is going to end but how? Either ASUU grudgingly go back to work or FG issued sack letters to all of them, whichever way, the former school will be better than the new school all of us will resume into.
FG will not come to class to teach, it is the disgruntled lecturers that will still teach. If they employ new hands, the new hands will be inexperienced in both teaching and handling/relating with students.

Nigeria is a big joke

How can a person be so cruel like this.he didnt care about we that elected him.i dont think this is buhari oo,the one on the thrond is fake&the real one has been locked inside the room How can a person be so cruel like this.he didnt care about we that elected him.i dont think this is buhari oo,the one on the thrond is fake&the real one has been locked inside the room

base on my careful analysis on the case at hand btw fg and ASUU, I deduce that fg were not sincere in this matter because hw will you sign an agreement with a union and subsequently fail to honor the agreement...it's called breach of contract.

secondly, you brought up an idea of ipps 11yrs ago (2009) to be implemented to all MDAs, which is good but then some MDAs complained about some discrepancies in ipps that might suit their payment platform, because ipps platform is just like a Excel data sheet format in which EVERY ALLOWANCE paid to every workers is present there but it was seen that some organization allowance peculiarities were not included in the platform..Now I believe that fg Should have confirmed ,amend, add and correct the necessary abnormalities in the platform but they failed to do necessary adjustment SIMPLY because the software was built by word bank with billions of naira and for them to adjust anything on the platform, they need to contact world bank and pay another huge billions for the correction, the reason is that the BACKEND OR IPPIS DATA BASE IS NOT IN NIGERIA (lol).. very pathetic

thirdly.. from my careful investigation..I came to understand that lecturers salaries were consolidated.. ie their salary comprises of basic salary and peculiar allowance.. now this is where there is confusion, lecturers re claiming that TAX should be deducted from there basic salary but ippis is deducting tax on both there basic and allowance.

Also lecturers claim that there promotion is not stationary..ie lecturers promotion are not base on hw many yrs u re in the institution but it depends solemly on the more certificate u aquire ( msc ,PhD, ) and also quality journal published..now after you ve gotten the necessary documents and qualifications due for promotion, you will be appraised by you Dept, faculty n finally school Senate before u will be promoted.this can happen at any month of the year, but ippis mode of promotion is stationary, Ie, promotion is sessional , maybe two times or once every yr, if u miss that particular month or period, you wait till next year..

Another stuff I also discovered is that ippis office is only situated at Abuja, any complaint by lecturer from unilag base on mistake or error in payment will require you to travel from Lagos to Abuja, lodge in a hotel for days until you're attended to Compared to there formal method of operandi in which lecturers can simply go there burser for any complaint and it will be attended to at no expense to the lecturers...

Now on ASUU part,
this consistent strike should stop...you people should find another way of getting fg attention and not only strike because we the students re seriously SUFFERING and are always at the loosing end in this fight..
pls and pls consider the plight of our youth In this country wasting away cos of the brutal and yeye fight btw yourselves and fg
thanks

Thank you so much! This is the best reply I’ve seen so far.

I’ve been wondering why ASUU doesn’t want IPPIS but now I see why but then still they need to do better.

ASUU needs to find other alternatives aside strike because the strike is obviously ineffective
