President Kiir on Thursday directed the Ministry of Finance to pay February and March salary arrears and allowances to all Public Universities based on an updated salary scale.

The Directive comes after lecturers and non-academic staffs from Bahr-El-Ghazal, Rumbek and Upper Nile Universities threatened to lay down their tools due to unpaid arrears.

This is not the first time Lecturers and non-academic staffs from the five public universities have threatened – or have gone ahead to lay down their tools due to unpaid arrears.

This morning, Sani Martin and the guests discussed the continuous trikes by university lecturers and possible solutions. Take a listen.
