ASUU to Okonjo-Iweala: You Are Dreaming!

 The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU)  Wednesday faulted the claim by the Coordinating Minister for the Economy and Finance Minister, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, that......
they were demanding for N92 billion from the federal government.
The lecturers, according to Freedom Online, said the money demanded was just N87 billion.
The minister was on Tuesday reported as saying the federal government could not meet the N92 billion allowances being demanded by ASUU, but the University of Ibadan Chairman of ASUU, Dr. Olusegun Ajiboye, described the quoted amount as a concocted falsehood and a figment of the minister's imagination.
Ajiboye said: "The earned allowances jointly calculated with the federal government and ASUU in the 2009 agreement were N87 billion and they covers allowances for three-and-a-half years for thousands of lecturers in Nigerians universities."
