THE
Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) says the government must show proof
of payment of at least N50 billion revitalisation funds for it to consider
suspending the on-going strike.
ASUU President, Prof. Biodun Ogunyemi, made this known to
newsmen on Sunday in Ibadan ahead the union’s meeting with the Federal
Government on Monday.
Ogunyemi added that ASUU had said only concrete
evidence of implementation by the government would make its members return to
the classrooms.
He said ASUU had rejected government’s proposal
to pay N20 billion in two tranches on the revitalisation of universities and
asked the government to mainstream the earned academic allowances into the 2019
budget before National Assembly.
