Some of their demands are:

  • revitalization fund, the replacement of the Integrated Personnel Payroll Information System,
  • IPPIS, with the University Transparency and
  • Accountability System UTAS etc 

“We just want to give the government a long rope hoping that it would see the need to avoid a total paralysis of academic activities in the nation’s universities. We are parents too and have our children in the system but we cannot watch and allow the total collapse of education in the country.
