This plea follows a directive by ASUU to lecturers to stay at home pending the payment of their withheld salaries by the Federal Government.
But the lecturers of the institution opted to teach students from home due to the financial constraints they face.
Ishaya said: “We have presented at the Senate that if for instance, the lecturers are not paid when academic activities resumed, we planned that they can continue with their academic activities virtually.
“The Senate has adopted that where academic staff find it difficult as a result of lack of payment of salaries, they can do their lectures from home using technology. And we have put in all plans concerning virtual platforms to ensure both academic staff and students can engage.
“That is my understanding of the action of the ASUU chapter of the University of Jos which is in line with what the Senate of the University has approved with respect to staying at home because of the difficulties of transporting themselves to the University.”
Professor Ishaya urged the Federal Government to reconsider its “no work no pay policy” as the work of the academic staff was beyond teaching in classrooms but include research and community service.
He appealed to the varsity’s chapter of ASUU to be compassionate with students and resume lectures.
“ASUU should please be considerate and compassionate with students and parents and return to the classroom.
“I appeal that it allows academic activities to go on while further negotiations with government on payment of withheld salaries continues.
“We have asked these students to resume; it will be traumatic to ask them to return home again having spent eight months at home already,’’ he pleaded.
