SSANU Commends UNILORIN Management
The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities (SSANU) has commended the management of the University of Ilorin for not giving the staff unions any reason to embark on industrial action.
The Vice-President (West) of the Union, Comrade Alfred I. Jimoh, who gave this commendation, noted that strike is a part of the strategies of the Union but stressed that it is not the only option. He added that the Union is not always eager to embark on strike.
The SSANU leader also commended the Unilorin Branch of the Union for its developmental strides and cordial relationship with the University management. He affirmed that the Unilorin Branch of SSANU is very active contrary to insinuations that the Union is dead.
Comrade Jimoh explained that it was the management that has not allowed the Union to embark on strike by always responding promptly to the demands of the Union. He called on the Vice-Chancellor to continue to see to the welfare of the University workers. “You must make your staff happy to continue to be better by far”, he said.
The trade unionist made case for the payment of the earned allowances, reminding the management that the Federal Government had directed each university to pay the earned allowances from their respective IGR. He advised that the earlier the universities start the implementation, the better.
