sident of the Academic Staff Union of
Universities (ASUU), Dr. Nasir Fagge, on Monday in
Abuja called for appropriate remuneration of Nigeria
workers to boost their morale.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that Fagge
made the call at a two-day stakeholders’ forum
organized by National Salaries Incomes and Wages
Commission (NSIWC).
The forum was on the review of the existing job
evaluation and grading system in the Nigerian
public service.
Fagge said that productivity in Nigeria was low
because “people who do not contribute to nation’s
building earn the highest pay.”
He said that several well-meaning Nigerians had
failed to contribute immensely to nation’s building
due to the anomalies related to remuneration.
He advised the authorities to ensure that
recommendations arising from the forum were
properly implemented.
“Productivity is not commensurate to remuneration
in the country. There are a lot of people in Nigeria
who do not contribute much to nation’s building but
they earn the highest pay.
“The major issue behind Nigeria’s under-
development is that we have not been doing what is
right in the remuneration system. In other nations
remuneration is directly proportionate to
productivity.
“The earlier we make sure that productivity is
remunerated accordingly the better for us,’’ Fagge
said.
