The Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP) has issued a 15-day ultimatum to the Nigerian government and the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) over unmet demands.
The Coordinator, Zone C of the union, Nurudeen Masopa, said in a statement that the union resolved to issue the ultimatum after a recent National Executive Council (NEC) meeting. The ultimatum issued by the union begins on 7 October and will end on 20 October.
“In the interest of industrial peace and harmony, the union calls on the government and proprietors of public institutions to urgently address these issues within the 15-day ultimatum, as resolved by the NEC of our union at its 111th meeting, to avoid further union actions,” the statement reads in parts.
