Polytechnics Staff Resumes Strike Again Over Non-implementation of Agreements
The Academic Staff Union of Polytechnic (ASUP) has directed its members across all chapters to embark on a two week strike commencing from last Monday, December 2 for the first instance.
The groups says the resolution to embark on 14 days nationwide strike followed the expiration of the 15-day ultimatum issued to the Federal government and its relevant agencies to address the issues placed before it which lapsed on Friday.
The Zone C Coordinator of ASUP, Comrade Mosopa Adekunle Nurudeen , told newsmen in Lagos on Friday that all chapters and members across the zone are to observe the resolution while the chapter executives have been mandated to ensure compliance.
Some of the demands of ASUP include failure of the state governments on non-implementation of 35/25 %, minimum wage and CONTISS 15 migration, delay in promotion exercises, non-payment of promotion benefits, inadequate staffing and appointment of principal officers in acting capacity among other.
