The Colleges of Education Academic staff Union (COEASU), has charged Nigerian workers, especially its members not to be intimidated by the threat of President Muhamadu Buhari, administration to introduce the “no work no pay,” policy for implementation.
National President of the union, Nuhu Ogirima, said the threat of no work no pay should not intimidate Nigerian workers’
In a statement signed by Ogirima, the union said: “The Federal Government, rather than own up to her failure to deliver good governance, by addressing our issues and, indeed, those of the larger populace, has threatened no work no pay. This grand standing is a mark of not only insensitivity but also irresponsibility towards the law abiding labour force of our dear country.”
The COEASU president stated that the lecturers have been receiving fractional and mutilated salaries for years in all Federal Colleges of Education.
He said: “Where salaries are paid, it is the cooperative societies membership subscriptions and Unions’ dues that are being used to service/augment government allocation for salaries. So, if we didn’t threaten government no pay no work, why would government threaten us with no work no pay because we’re now requesting government to pay us full salary?”
He pointed out that the Federal Government disposition has only vindicated “our perception that the current Federal Government does not care for the less privileged, whose children constitute over 90% of Colleges of Education students population.
He added, “how would Federal Government justify its refusal to implement 2014 Needs Assessment report on the 70 public Colleges of Education, which review it called for again in 2017, when it began the implementation of same report for another tertiary education institution, to which the children and wards of the elites subscribe, in 2015?
“What justification has FG to refuse the full implementation of CONTISS 15 by denying the lower cadre of COEs, much more so when the same FG did for a sister sub-sector both of whom a presidential approval was given in 2009?”
Don’t be intimidated ma dear workers.
