Polytechnic lecturers, FG conciliation meeting deadlocked


It’s a long holiday for Students in Nigerian Polytechnics as a meeting between Academic  Staff Union of  Polytechnics (ASUP) and the  Federal Government held yesterday ended in a deadlock.
The meeting which lasted for five hours   was chaired by the Permanent Secretary Federal Ministry of Education, Mr  Sunny Echonu.
ASUP President Comrade  Usman Dutse told newsmen that the lecturers were not pleased with the body language of government which seems to be proposing second week of January 2019 for the continuation of the the meeting.


Recall  that ASUP resumed strike on December 12, 2018 following what it described as  government’s failure to keep to agreements reached on ‘NEEDS’ assessement  Earned acyademic Allowance among others.
