Nasarawa State University, which voted for continuation of the strike. Chairman of ASUUin the school, Dr. Theophilus Lagi, told our correspondent after the congress that as far as his members were concerned the strike should continue. He said, “There are certain grey areas that must be cleared. The ‘no work no pay’ policy must be sorted out. Government must pay lecturers the arrears. “We also need evidence that the N200bn that government promised to release this year is in the central bank. We are not going to suspend the strike until the money is there and available for sourcing. That is the position of the congress. “Nobody trusts government. They have been making promises since 2009 and nothing has been implemented except the N30bn earned allowances. “Secondly, the 2009 agreement is due for review; nothing has been said about that. Lecturers have been denied salary for three months, those monies must be paid.”
