The federal government team, led by the Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr. Chris Ngige, also agreed to settle the arrears of salaries of the lecturers before December 31.

This took place one week after the Federal Government exempted ASUU from the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System pending the approval of their proposed payment system, the University Transparency, and Accountability Solution.
