The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), on Wednesday threatened to go on strike if the federal government stops payment of salaries to lecturers for resisting enrollment on the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System. The union said it had designed a “ unique prototype of the IPPIS for the university system named , University Transparency and Accountability Solution, which it urged the Federal Government to implement in universities instead of the IPPIS .

ASUU warned that, if the Accountant General of the Federation makes bold his threat of stopping the salaries of their members, the union will activate its standing resolution of “ No Pay, No Work. The ASUU National President, Prof. Biodun Ogunyemi , stated this in Abuja at a press conference between December 7 and 8, 2019.
