Strike: FG doesn’t have funds to meet part of ASUU’s demands, says Ngige | TheCable ASUUstrike

ASUU strike: FG agrees to merge IPPIS with UTASChris Ngige, minister of labour, says the federal government does not have the funds to meet some of the demands of the Academic Staff Union of Universities .While declaring the strike, the union said the decision was taken over the federal government’s delay on an agreement, which included issues on salaries, the adoption of the University Transparency Accountability Solution payroll software, and the revitalisation fund for universities.

“Government is a continuum. The N1.3 trillion you are talking about was promised by the Jonathan government. Oil was selling about $100 to $120 per barrel then and the revenue of the federation was rich,” he said.“The agreement says that ‘government is unable to pay this but to show commitment to the intentions of the revitalisation for which this N1.3 trillion was promised’.

“Government said we don’t have the money to pay for it — this was the agreement in 2016 to 2017 — but we will find a way by which we can fund the universities and revitalise infrastructure.
