We wrote the reports and submitted them back to the honourable minister, which he forwarded to all relevant institutions, including ASUU. As we speak now, ASUU is working, trying to fix all the issues we highlighted with the system and we will review it again. But that is just one half of the story.\u201d<br \/>But ASUU has insisted that UTAS scored both 85 and 77 per cent, which are \u201chigh class grades in any known evaluation system\u201d.<br \/>Mr Osodeke, explaining further in the statement, stated that NITDA carried out the first integrity test on August 10, 2021, in NUC where relevant government agencies and all the end-users in the University system were present. He said all accepted UTAS as a suitable solution for salary payment in Nigerian universities.<br \/>\u201cHowever, in a curious twist of submission, the NITDA Technical Team, after conducting a comprehensive functionality test came out to say that out of 687 test cases, 529 cases were satisfactory, 156 cases queried, and 2 cases were cautioned.&#8221;<br \/><input id=\"wp-comment-cookies-consent\" name=\"wp-comment-cookies-consent\" type=\"checkbox\" value=\"yes\" \/><label for=\"wp-comment-cookies-consent\">Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.<\/label><br \/><input name=\"submit\" type=\"submit\" id=\"submit\" class=\"submit\" value=\"Post Comment\" \/> <input type='hidden' name='comment_post_ID' value='86069' id='comment_post_ID' \/> <input type='hidden' name='comment_parent' id='comment_parent' value='0' \/> <br \/>Idoma Voice is the number ONE news portal in North-Central Nigeria.
