Lecturers at the University of Maiduguri (UniMaid) have said they will not submit examination results or release the final results of students until the federal government resolves the issue of pro-rata payment of salary and nonpayment of their 8 months’ salaries.

The Unimaid Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) branch Chairman, Dr Abubakar Mshelia Saidu, announced this at a press conference in Maiduguri on Tuesday.

Recall the university had commenced examinations for students for the 2020/2022 session following the suspension of the strike by ASUU.

Saidu 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.”
