Education minister, Mallam Ibrahim Shekarau.There is hope that the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP) may not proceed on strike tomorrow following the outcome of the meeting it held with the Minister of Education Ibrahim Shekarau earlier today.
Leaders of the union are about to enter a meeting with the Education Committee of the House of Representatives after a two hour meeting earlier in the day with Shekarau
The union is demanding the withdrawal of a circular issued by the ministry of education, suspending the implementation of CONTISS 15 in polytechnics, and the revocation of the decisions by the governing councils of Federal polytechnics Oko in Anambra State and Ado, in Ado- Ekiti to suspend all union activities in the institutions and the sack of union leaders.
Credible sources at the meeting told Daily Trust that the minister has ordered the immediate withdrawal of the circular suspending CONTISS 15 and has ordered the restoration of union activities in the affected institution.
The sources said a planned meeting with the Ministry of Labour this Friday may not hold if the outcome of the parley with the lawmakers is favourable.
The union is also demanding improved funding of polytechnics in terms of better laboratories and equipment.
