The ongoing nationwide strike by polytechnic lecturers is set
to continue as the National Executive Council, NEC, of the lecturers’
union, ASUP, rejected the federal government’s offer.
The
National Publicity Secretary of ASUP, Clement Shirman, told Premium
Times that after a three-hour meeting on Wednesday, the NEC of ASUP
resolved that until all 13 issues contained in its demand are met, the
strike would continue.
The lecturers have been on strike since
October 1, 2013, demanding among others better working conditions,
infrastructure improvement, and an end to discrimination of polytechnic
graduates.
More details coming soon.
