Kyambogo university lecturers have given management up to Thursday this week to clear their allowance arrears amounting to Shs 3 billion.
Rev. Dr. Grace Lubaale, the Kyambogo University Academic Staff Association – KYUASA chairperson, says they have resolved not to set or invigilate examinations until they receive their allowances. “We have not been paid up today…up to now the university has not given any single explanation to the teaching staff. These teaching staff are the ones with the exams,” Rev. Dr. Lubaale revealed.
“So how do they give in the exam when they have not been paid. We’re not part of the exams process – meaning that no submission of exams, no invigilation. We’re not part of the examination process beginning on Friday. What is the reason? We have not been paid what we deserve. Maybe the vice chancellor will set his exams and get an invigilator”, Lubaale said.
