We can always also take from our IGR to supplement what we are given by the government.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ ALSO: \u201cYou Can Actually Fall By Lifting Others\u201d \u2014 Chidinma Ekile Tells Givers Association Of Nigeria<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnother advantage is that we want the government to increase our salary, and with this development, we can subsidise such increments with our IGR. We are currently poorly paid as lecturers in Nigerian universities. For example, a professor should not earn less than a million naira.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis development will save us a lot of trouble of running to Abuja to get approval for so many things we can easily handle on our own. Such things as recruitment and others. We have the autonomy now and we can manage our system efficiently on our own.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is so much bureaucracy in IPPIS which gives us so much headache. We have some of our staff members who have not collected their salary for many months now because of that bureaucracy. We have a situation where a former VC who went on sabbatical was denied his salaries on return for several months due to the bottlenecks of IPPIS,\u201d Fasina said.<\/p>\n<p>He said by the singular act of exiting universities from IPPIS, \u201cPresident Bola Tinubu has demonstrated his genuine intention and commitment to turning around the fortunes of the education sector. The exemption would birth a new university system.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-7\" style=\"margin: 8px auto; text-align: center; display: block; clear: both;\">\n<div data-advadstrackid=\"890536\" data-advadstrackbid=\"1\" class=\"infor-target\" id=\"infor-2114967511\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/300x250b.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Professor Abayomi Fasina, Vice Chancellor of the Federal University, Oye Ekiti (FUOYE), has urged the government to consider an upward review of the salaries of academics in the country.
