Lecturers activate ‘No Pay, No Work’ policy, stop academic activities nationwide (The Guardian)
The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has declared a "no pay no work" policy to protest the non-payment of salaries and allowances by the Nigerian government. This has led to a nationwide suspension of academic activities in universities. The lecturers are demanding that the government fulfill its agreement to provide adequate funding for education and address other issues such as the renegotiation of the 2009 agreement and the implementation of the Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System (IPPIS). The ASUU strike has once again highlighted the ongoing challenges in the Nigerian education system and the need for the government to prioritize the sector.
