FG Set to Begin Payment of Salary Areas to ASUP and ASUU.

In a bid to end the ongoing strike the Federal Government, has commenced the payment of minimum wage arrears to ASUP and ASUU members.

The National President of ASUP, Dr. Anderson Ezeibe, and the Chairman, ASUU FUTMinna, Dr. Gbolahan Bolarin, confirmed this in separate interviews with newsmen in Abuja on Thursday 19 May 2022.

According to ASUP President, “the government has started responding. They just started paying the salary/minimum wage arrears, the one they have refused to pay.

“However, that is just one of the demands, so we have not reached anywhere. They have not attended to the others, but I can confirm that people have started receiving alerts of the arrears owed.”

Furthermore, Bolarin, said, “Some of my members got alert of their minimum wage arrears; their salaries are still pending.”
