FG THREATENS NO WORK NO PAY POLICY FOR STRIKING SSANU AND NASU WORKERS.

The Joint Action Committee of SSANU and NASU had earlier embarked on a nationwide strike as regards issues emanating from the Integrated Personnel Payroll Information System (IPPIS) which was introduced by the FG.

The groups also clamor that issues surrounding the nonpayment of retirement benefits to retirees and nonpayment of miminum wage arrears should be addressed by the FG.

However, the Minister of Labour, Chris Ngige has come out to declare the ongoing strike as illegal. He stated that they asked for an adjournment and that it is wrong for the union to embark on strike while the FG is still in dialogue with them. He further stated that a “No Work No Pay” police may be imposed on the striking unions.
