The Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics, ASUP, has issued a fifteen-day ultimatum to the Federal Government to implement agreements aimed at improving members’ working conditions or face nationwide industrial action.

ASUP Chairman of the Kaduna Polytechnic Chapter, Abubakar Abdullahi, who made this known during a briefing in Kaduna, informed union members of the resolutions reached at the Union’s one hundred and eleventh National Executive Council, NEC, meeting held in Abuja.

The union said at the end its 15-day ultimatum, the NEC will reconvene to decide on a specific course of action.

Abdullahi expressed disappointment over the Federal Government’s slow progress and seeming indifferent approach to addressing the agreements reached with ASUP.

He further called for the immediate implementation of promotions and payment of all accrued promotion arrears in state-owned institutions, as well as the release of outstanding promotion arrears in federal institutions and colleges of education.
