The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) said it will boycott classes to protest the payment of half salaries for October. According to Moyosore Ajao, ASUU chairman at the University of Ilorin, lecturers in tertiary universities will observe lecture-free days to register their displeasure at the federal government.

Recall that ASUU embarked on an eight-month strike in February which ended in October after a court order directed ASUU to return to classes.

Meanwhile spokesperson for the Ministry of Labour and Employment, Olajide Oshundun; says ASUU members were paid their October salary pro-rata and not half salary as reported.
