Minister of Finance, Zainab Ahmed, last week, in Kano, disclosed that 55 percent of (ASUU) members had enrolled on (IPPIS), since government announced the deadline.

Zainab, declaring there was no going back on compulsory enrolment of federal civil servants, including (ASUU) on (IPPIS), insisted government had activated no work no salary policy, beginning from February 2020.

But contrary to the Minister’s position, (ASUU) maintained that government was not being sincere with the figures, challenging government to prove the 55 per cent membership registration on IPPIS.

Addressing a press conference, yesterday, on its ongoing two-week warning strike, (ASUU) Kano Zonal Coordinator, Professor Muhmoud Lawan, noted that not less than 80 per cent members nationwide fully complied with (ASUU) decision to shun (IPPIS) enrolment.

The union leader challenged Federal Government to spell out in numbers and accurate data, names of the 55 percent (ASUU) members said to have enrolled in the (IPPS), adding that the information dished out by the Minister was aimed at misleading and distracting them from their struggles.

Lawan, who maintained the academic union will never renege its stand, which he claimed clearly contravened universities autonomy and lack legal basis, said Nigerians should not hold members responsible on what is happening in the universities.
