UniMaid lecturers threaten to withhold students’ results over half-salary

Lecturers at the University of Maiduguri (UniMaid) have threatened to withhold results of students until the federal government resolves the issue of pro-rata payment of salary and nonpayment of their 8 months’ salaries. 

 Dr Abubakar Mshelia, Chairman of Unimaid's branch of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) made the announcement on Tuesday, November 22. 

 He said; “Members of ASUU will not mark the current examination scripts; they will also not submit the results of both the first and second semesters of the 2020/2021 academic session.

 “There will be no computation of academic status by coordinators of parts 1-4, 5 or 6, as applicable. “Government said ‘no-work, no-pay; we say ‘no-pay, no-work.”
