Reps threaten sanctions against five South-East polytechnics

The House of Representatives Committee on Polytechnics and Other Higher Technical Education has issued a stern warning to five federal polytechnics for failing to appear before it to present their budget performance reports.

The committee’s chairman, Rep. Fuad Laguda, made the announcement on Wednesday in Abuja after a planned meeting with the institutions was abandoned due to their absence.

“Despite inviting the management teams of five federal polytechnics, none attended the meeting scheduled for Wednesday, 20 November 2024,” Laguda said.
