ASUP Suspends Strike, Asks Members To Resume Work Monday

The Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics has suspended its two-week warning strike and directed its members nationwide to resume duties on Monday.
Recall that the union had embarked on a two-week strike on December 2 over neglect of the polytechnics education in Nigeria and other issues.
However, in a statement dated December 12 and made available to newsmen on Friday, the ASUP National President, Shammah Kpanja, said the union suspended the strike following a meeting with officials of the Ministry of Labour and Employment.
Kpanja said a Memorandum of Understanding was signed with a caveat that another meeting would be held on January 23, 2025, to end the industrial dispute finally.
The ASUP president stated that the union’s National Executive Council will meet to review the situation ahead of the meeting with the government in January.
The statement reads, “The general public may recall that our union declared a two-week definite strike effective 2nd December 2024 over the inability of government through its agencies to execute nine items in the work plan jointly developed with our Union to resolve some pending issues of trade dispute.
