The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has threatened that there is no going back on its planned strike action as long as the government did not meet its demands.
The union also tackled members of the National Assembly for earning ₦1.5 million or thereabout monthly to the detriment of professors with ₦416 000 monthly takehomes.
Mr Adelaja Odukoya, the Zonal Coordinator of ASUU, Lagos Zone, made the disclosure on Tuesday while addressing journalists at the end of the zonal meeting of the union held at the Federal University of Agriculture Abeokuta (FUNAAB), Ogun State.
Odukoya also criticized Senators and House of Representatives members over “jumbo pay”, adding that academic members “are being impoverished by the federal government.”
