The Senior Staff Association of Nigeria Polytechnics on Friday threatened to paralyze academic activities in the polytechnics if the government failed to fulfill the promises made to them.
This is coming a few days after the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics issued a one-month ultimatum to the government for the resumption of its strike action.
The association in a letter dated April 1, 2022, signed by its National Secretary, Hussaini Gwandu, and addressed to the Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, wondered why the Federal Government would sign an agreement it had no intention of fulfilling. The letter listed among others, the non-release of their schemes of service, non-release of their approved N15bn for infrastructural development, and inadequate funding of the polytechnics as part of the demands the FG had yet to meet.
