ASUP suspends strike, asks members to resume work tomorrow
Following the expiration of its two-week warning strike which it had embarked on to press home its demands from the federal government, the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnic, ASUP, has directed its members to resume work on Monday, May 30, 2022.
The umbrella body of lecturers of the nation’s public polytechnics said the decision to call off the action followed some achievement made so far in its demands.
In a statement signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Abdullahi Yalwa, Saturday, ASUP explained that the government had met four of its demands so far.
Açcording to the union, the decision to resume work was to give the federal government more time to meet the remaining five demands.
The statement reads: “The two weeks definite strike of the union will be rounding off on the 29th of May, 2022 as agreed by the emergency meeting of NEC.
“Consequently, the union is requesting
members to resume duties effective 30th of May, 2022 while hoping that government will take advantage of the window to address the five outstanding items.
“Further directives/ updates shall be released after the 103rd meeting of NEC which is scheduled to hold in the month of June 2022 during which the situation shall be reviewed.”
