The directive of the Federal Governmentstopping
the salaries of university worker who have not enrolled on the
Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System, has been
described by the Academic Staff Union of
Universities, ASUU, as blackmail to weaken workers and
force them to enroll on the platform.
University Of Port Harcourt ASUU Chairman, Dr Austen Said,
stated this on Sunday.
Sado in his statement noted that though some of his colleagues
have not received salaried since February, the union would not be
force into enrolling on IPPIS.
He said, “It (directive to stop salaries) clearly shows that
there is something the Federal Government is not telling the
people. They are not paying us (some lecturers). So, why are they
saying by November?”
What they are doing now is just blackmail and threat to see
how they would weaken our members to go and enroll (on IPPIS).
People who have not enrolled are not being paid; some people for
eight months, some for three, going to four months. I have not been
paid salary since July, while some people have not been paid since
February.”

“They have not paid us because of IPPIS. A few of the people
that registered with IPPIS are being paid. But when they pay them,
they don’t even get the full complement of their salaries; some of
them claim that they get like N50,000, N60,000, and we are talking
about senior lecturers and above.”
“A professor told me that what he is getting is N100,000 (as
monthly salary) and yet they want to put more people into that. But
we have resolved that we will not succumb to this
blackmail.”
