ASUP calls off 81-days strike

Follow @NaijaTalkative

After 81 days of inactivity,
polytechnic students across the country are expected to return to their classrooms as the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP) suspends its strike today.

The ASUP Chairman, Dr.
Chibuzor Asumogba, told
Vanguard in a phone interview that the decision was made by the National Executive Committee of the Union as a result of the intervention of the Joint committee of the Senate and House of Representative
on Education.
He said the union gave the government representatives one month to accede to their demands and release the white paper on the visitation panel to federal polytechnics.

The ASUP Chairman however, called on all lecturers to go back to work.
“All lecturers are to resume work at their various institutions today”, He said.
