This is rich information and Angle shared by @scarfizal on #Asuuwhy #IPPIS

Similarly, One of the primary cause of disagreement between ASUU and the Federal Government on the IPPIS issue is that of sabbaticals. /1

The Sabbatical agreement allows for a lecturer to have only one sabbatical at a singular University. This can be either as a visiting lecturer or on a sabbatical. You can do only one, not both.

In my opinion I don’t see a problem /2 #Asuuwhy

This also implies that you cannot do your sabbatical in so many universities. (Why should you)?

This is the dragon in the ring
This Sabbatical wahala is why there are issues and ASUU has ensured our kids are at home … #Asuuwhy /3

So what a lot of lecturers do is they go on Sabbatical while still enrolled in their primary University.

Why should they?

They can then go on to 3 or 4 more universities or institutions in visiting capacity.

Na wa #Asuuwhy

The way it works is that lecturers get paid for every visit made to the other institutions, at the same time, making 100% of their gross from their primary institution. This costs the government money!

Na only ASUU and their lecturers Dey Nigeria? #Asuuwhy /5

The government is cutting the cost with the new agreement and IPPIS is the system to checkmate that.

For every university they visit, they get an additional 50% of their gross salary.

The system therefore allows for strict monitoring & the process of adjuncting. Sigh #Asuuwhy
