Picture of a Unilag Senior Lecturer's October's salary alert has been making rounds on the internet since the Federal Government paid members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities their October salaries.
The picture alleged the Senior Lecturer got a payment of N29,269.69 as his October Pro-rata salary.
Campus Verve recalls the Federal Government only paid lecturers under the aegis of the Academic Staff Union of Universities for 18 working days in the month of October after the union called off its eight-month-old strike on October 14, 2022.
The picture was in a post made mrrandomguy on Nairaland and it had the caption
"The work of a lecturer is threefold:
1. Teaching
2. Research
3. Community service
Strike only prevents them from teaching, which they must go back and complete after resumption. Hence, they should be paid in full.
Despite this tripartite nature of lecturers' work, their 8 months salary arrears were not paid. To add salt to injury, they got less than half of their monthly pay.
This was allegedly what a senior lecturer in university of Lagos got paid."
