At last, it is with excitement, capital joy amidst jubilation and celebration of over 20 years struggle of Nigerian Polytechnic students and graduates including the staff unions and heads of Polytechnic in Nigeria. I am pleased to announce to the public that the COUNCIL OF ESTABLISHMENT which comprises of all the head of service of the 36 States of the Federation and the head of service of the Federation approved the removal of this long overdue dichotomy which hinder thecareer progression of HND holders in
civil service in her meeting held in Minna Niger state capital during theweek after an exhaustive deliberation, pro and anti deposition which ended
with tie vote of 16 against 16 while the head of service of the Federation voted in support as presiding officer after the tie, to earn the Polytechnic sector the
victory. Making the vote 17 pro against 16 anti. Henceforth, This resolution automatically lift embargo on HND holder carer progression in civil service as the holder can now rise beyond Deputy Director in civil service as well enjoy all sort of benefits/promotion to
the topmost rank due to BSc holders in civil service. It is on record that this same Council was the sole obstacle for this struggle since year 2005 when President Olusegun Obasanjo pronounced the removal of this dichotomy, the Council called the then president statement a mere pronouncement with out documentation and refused it adoption no implementation. It will be recalledthat the last meeting of the council which was held at Ilorin kwara state capital witness heavy presence of
Nigeria Polytechnic students which I personally
led as the National Senate President of NAPS to the council in protest for the need for the council to reconsider her position on the said matter. A position
paper was submitted after the protest as demanded by the then head of service of Federation who was the
chairman of the Council, unfortunately, the matter was completely discussed nor concluded at Ilorin until now in her next meeting in Niger state. The Council often meets every 3 years, On behalf of the entire West Africa Polytechnic students and most especially the Nigeria Polytechnic students, I express sincere gratitude to the head of service of states and that
of the Federation who stood for us and with us, the Federal Ministry of Education, the National Board for
Technical Education (NTBE),Council of Head of Polytechnic and Colleges of Technology (COHEADS), Academic Staff Union of Polytechnic (ASUP), past
and present leadership of National Association Of Polytechnic Students (NAPS ) and by extension the Nigerians Union of journalist for their support all
through the struggle.We look forward for immediate implementation by all state of the Federation, Federal
government agencies and departments while I call on all Polytechnic student to join us as we Commence appreciation/celebration.
Aluta continua, Victoria Ascerta,
No retreat no surrender, As long as we live, struggle continues...
