The Federal government has set up a five-person committee to resolve the inconsistencies in the payment of salaries of the non-academic staff members of universities, as concluded at the meeting held on Wednesday, October 21.
Recall that the Joint Action Committee of SSANU and NASU had embarked on a 14-day warning strike between October 5 and October 19 to call the attention of the federal government to their demands.
At the meeting, it was agreed that the committee would examine the complaints of the unions on inconsistencies in their payments by the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS).
The membership of the five-person committee is drawn from the National Salaries Income and Wages Commission, Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment, IPPIS, National Universities Commission, and Office of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation.
