The unions, under the aegis of Joint Action Committee, JAC, South South Zone at the end of a three-day national protest in Port Harcourt, said the Federal Government is not doing the appropriate thing, noting that the university system has four unions, and for it to function well, all the unions and segments must be recognised and carried along.
The unions had embarked on a nationwide protest to reject the sharing formula of the N30b given to universities as Earned Allowances for all university workers by the Federal Government. He said: “… The government has shown irresponsibility and irrational behaviour towards the welfare of staff of the university system. Worst still is the dichotomy they are trying to create, the kind of divide and rule system they are trying to create in the university system. We are saying no to that.
They came up with a seven-point agreement and the Federal Government has reneged in implementing them. “They told us that the N30b being released was for Earned Allowances for all university workers, but today, we are shocked to hear of 75 per cent for academic staff and 25 per cent for non-academic staff.
