ASUU Strike: We don’t have money to pay lecturers – Federal Government

The Federal Government said on Wednesday that it has met seven of the eight demands of aggrieved university lecturers.
One of the demands that could not be met is the N284 billion allowance owed the lecturers, and which the government cannot meet now because of “recession,” an official said.
The university lecturers, ASUU, embarked on a one week warning strike last Wednesday which was called off yesterday evening.
