FG Considers Half Pay For SSANU, NASU Members
Education Minister Tahir Mamman has shared that the Federal Government is contemplating disbursing half of the withheld salaries to non-academic staff at universities, pending approval from President Bola Tinubu. Mamman disclosed this during an interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today, highlighting ongoing efforts to release a portion of the withheld salaries belonging to members of NASU and SSANU.

Addressing the delay in payments to NASU and SSANU, Mamman clarified that the approval hadn’t been granted yet, emphasizing that ASUU’s payment was a distinct decision and didn’t automatically extend to other unions. However, he assured that efforts were underway to address the issue, stating that if a similar gesture is extended to NASU and SSANU, they might receive half of the payment, considering their strike duration.
