Nigerian Government Releases ₦2.3 Billion for University Lecturers' Arrears Settlement
The Nigerian Federal Government has released ₦2.3 billion to settle salary arrears and promotions for public university lecturers. This move comes after updates on engagements with academic staff unions like ASUU.
The funds aim to address welfare and funding disputes transparently. ASUU had recently suspended a warning strike over withheld salaries and revitalization funds.
The government's commitment to resolving these issues was emphasized, with ongoing negotiations to implement agreements dating back to 2009.
