ASUP to Embark on Another Indefinite Strike

The Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP) has said that they
will on February 25th embark on an indefinite strike.

The union had earlier on February 11 issued a two weeks ultimatum
urging the federal government to immediately implement the agreement
it reached with the union which led to the suspension of its strike last
July.

President of ASUP, Comrade Chibuzor Asomuga, while speaking with
journalists in Abuja at the weekend at the end of the national executive
council (NEC) meeting of the union frowned over the government’s
failure to implement the agreement it reached with the union.

According to him, ASUP suspended the strike in July 2014 based on the
plea of the Hon Minister of Education, Alhaji Ibrahim Shekarau who then
requested for a three month moratorium to enable him tackle the
lingering problems.

However, since the suspension of the strike none of the issues has been
addressed to a logical conclusion.

It was learnt that other resolution reached at the end of the NEC
included that “the Federal Government should, without further delay
dissolve the Governing Councils of the Federal polytechnics Oko and
Ado Ekiti as they have become burdens rather than solutions to the
myriad of problems bedeviling the sector.

“That the circular issued by the Ministry of Education suspending the
implementation CONTISS 15 Migration be withdrawn with immediate
effect as the suspension is ill-timed and counterproductive and will
create further tension in the sector.

“That Managements and Councils of Polytechnics in Nigeria must desist
from interfering in ASUP activities in their Institutions and stop
forthwith the intimidation of staff who insists that proper things be
done.”
