The National Parent-Teacher Association of Nigeria has proposed a N10,000 support levy for universities.
The Public Relations Officer of NAPTAN, Dr. Ademola
Ekundayo, disclosed this in an interview with The PUNCH.
In the interview on Tuesday, Ekundayo said that the
association will be seeking audience with the Federal Government over the
lingering strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities over the support
levy to be paid each session.
“We have submitted a letter to the Office of the Education
Minister, seeking for audience where we hope to discuss a proposal.
“We are proposing a sum of N10,000 per parent every session
that will be directly paid to the universities.
“That will be our own contribution apart from other
statutory payments in making more funds available to the universities.
“It can be called parent support levy for universities.
“We are at the receiving end of the industrial action.
“We plead with the ASUU and Federal Government to
immediately resolve their differences.”
