Breaking News : Polytechnic lecturers resume nationwide strike today

There seems to be no end in sight for the
crisis currently rocking Nigeria’s education
sector as the Academic Staff Union of
Polytechnics (ASUP) has today joined
university lecturers in the ongoing strike.
ASUP national president, Comrade Chibuzor
Asomugha confirmed that the union was going
on with the strike and it is a total strike.
It would be recalled that the union had in July
suspended its nationwide strike following the
level of progress made in negotiation with
government and the intervention of the Joint
Senate and House of Representative
Committee on Education.
However, following government’s inability to
meet the condition for the suspension of the
strike, the union had last weekend threatened
to resume the suspended strike today.
ASUP has described the government’s refusal
to fulfill any of the promises and agreements
reached with the Union before the suspension
of the strike on July 17 as frustrating.
The union also passed a vote of no confidence
on the National Board for Technical Education
(NBTE), owing to its inability to meet the
needs and demands of polytechnic education.
