The National Secretary of the Union, Nura Gaya, said the strike will commence from midnight of Wednesday, January 22, 2025, through Friday, January 24, 2025, at the first instance.

As reported by The Punch, the letter was sent to the Ministry of Labour alongside the National Board for Technical Education and the Office of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation.

“This action has become imperative to further emphasise our position concerning the ongoing plot by certain stakeholders to unjustly deprive non-teaching staff of polytechnics and similar institutions of their rightful progression to the peak of their careers on CONTEDISS 15 on the ongoing redrafting of the Polytechnic Schemes of Service.”
