The Academic Staff Union of
Polytechnics, ASUP, has thrown its weight behind Academic Staff Union of
Universities, ASUU.
In a statement by ASUP Secretary
General, Anderson Ezeibe, the union noted that the strike was aimed at
restoring sanity to Nigerian universities.
The union also called on the
Federal Government to commence the implementation of agreements entered into
with ASUP to forestall an impending crisis in polytechnics.
ASUP added that it was concerned
about the consequences of the strike on students, parents and society at large.
It said, “ASUP notes the renewal
of hostilities on the country’s university campuses between ASUU and government
of Nigeria.
“While we are in unconditional
solidarity with ASUU in this struggle to restore sanity to Nigerian
universities, we are calling on the government to commence without further
delay the implementation of agreements entered into with ASUP to forestall an
impending crisis in the polytechnic sub-sector.”
