Workers of the Imo State Polytechnic, Umuagwo, have suspended the industrial action they embarked on some weeks ago following the issue of relocation and other matters.

According to a statement signed by the chairman of the institution’s Academic Staff Union of Polytechnic (ASUP), Dr. Desmond Echeta, the chairman of the Non-Academic Staff Union (NASU), Frank Ohagwam, and his Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Polytechnics (SSANIP) counterpart, Bede Asika, said suspension of the strike took immediate effect.

It reads: “Arising from an emergency meeting held on June 7 to 10, 2019 by all the unions in Imo State Polytechnic Umuagwo, the unions have unanimously resolved to suspend the ongoing indefinite strike in the polytechnic with immediate effect.”
