Leadership Failure Is Nigeria’s Problem Not Integrated Payroll System-ASUU

The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, has identified leadership failure at federal and state levels as the bane of the country’s problem and not Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System, IPPIS, introduced by the Federal Government

The union has been at logger head with the Federal Government over the introduction of IPPIS which government has made it mandatory for university lecturers to enroll, while ASUU has kicked against.  

Speaking on the development, Chairman, University of Ibadan Chapter of the Union, Prof Deji Omole, claimed that with the level of compliance by members, the union is on its way to win the battle against the Federal Government’s policy.  

 ASUU stressed that its refusal to enroll on the IPPIS is aimed at protecting the rule of law, sanctity of the university system and ensure the education system gets its due.

“Information reaching the leadership of ASUU UI reveals that the level of compliance to the directive of the union against IPPIS forceful enrolment is overwhelming nationwide.

He said, “There is clear evidence that we are winning the struggle as our support base in the various congresses remains solid.

“By the resolution of our union, no member of the union is allowed to enlist in the IPPIS platform.

“Nigeria’s problem is not about payroll but failure of leadership both at national and state levels, and the desperation of the ruling class to enslave everyone on behalf of foreign economic interests.

“United we bargain, divided we beg. The people united can never be defeated. Dare to struggle, dare to win. Solidarity forever,”.

He commended members for their unwavering support for the union’s decision and urged them to continue with the same spirit as the union according to him would emerge victorious at the end.
