THE
ACADEMIC STAFF UNION OF POLYTECHNICS (ASUP), HAVE THREATENED TO EMBARK ON AN
INDEFINITE STRIKE ON WEDNESDAY 25TH FEBRUARY, IF GOVERNMENT FAILS TO MEET THEIR
DEMANDS.
PRESIDENT OF THE UNION, MR CHIBUZOR ASOMUGHA TOLD JOURNALISTS DURING A PRESS
BRIEFING IN ABUJA THAT GOVERNMENT HAS NOT IMPLEMENTED ANY OF THEIR DEMANDS
SINCE THE SUSPENSION OF THE LAST STRIKE EMBARKED UPON BY THE UNION IN JULY LAST
YEAR.
ASUP IS AGGRIEVED OVER THE DICHOTOMY THAT EXISTS IN THE WAY
POLYTECHNIC AND UNIVERSITY GRADUATES ARE TREATED IN THE LABOUR MARKET, AND THE
POOR ATTENTION GIVEN TO THE POLYTECHNICS.
THEY ARE ALSO KICKING AGAINST GOVERNMENT’S NON-IMPLEMENTATION
OF AN AGREED SALARY STRUCTURE SINCE 2009.
