BREAKING: Outcome Of FG Meeting With ASUU Today Emerge

The outcome of ASUU meeting with FG has emerged.
OnyxNews Nigeria reports that the leaders of the Academic Staff Union of Universities and a delegation of the Federal Government met on Friday.
This online news platform earlier reported that the meeting started a few minutes to 12 pm with the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, leading the meeting.
The meeting is expected to address various pending issues, including the contentious payment platform preferred by the union.
Recall that ASUU had opposed the Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System used in settling workers salaries by the FG and instead, developed the University Transparency and Accountability Solution which is currently undergoing test-run by the National Information Technology Development Agency.
The Senior Staff Association of Nigeria Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union had also proposed the University General and Peculiar Personnel and Payroll System in place of the IPPIS.
The Ministry of Labour and Employment spokesman, Charles Akpan, had revealed in a text message on Wednesday that the dialogue with the leaders of ASUU would hold at the minister’s conference hall.
The government said it had agreed to pay N30bn Earned Academic Allowance, N20b for the revitalisation of the education sector and the arrears of salaries to the university teachers, adding that the only outstanding issue was the disagreement over the payment platform.
However, ASUU maintained that the government has not met its demands, stating that resolving the eight-month strike was not in sight.
