Auchi Polytechnic Crisis continues
Rector Humiliated by protesting staffs.
Today made
it the sixth day of the ongoing strike at the Federal polytechnic of Auchi. Lecturers
where at it again today when they paraded around all the campuses dressed in black shouting “solidarity “ with an image of
the Rector and coffins which were later burnt at the polytechnic main entrance
gate, After v of .
Images
and paintings of the Rector where removed or either painted with other colors,
the strike seems to be growing in violence as the days continue to count. A call
to the school’s (ASUP)chairman Engr. Isah Abdul Azeez indicated that the end of
the strike is not in sight.
The joint
union of SSANIP, ASUP and NASU embarked on this indefinite strike on Friday, 6th
February 2016.
failure
of the management to pay salaries has been traced to the Treasury single
Account policy by the president Muhammedu Buhari. This is due to the fact that
the Federal polytechnic has never gone on strike under her government.
I would
say that the Rector Dr. (Mrs.)
Philipa Idogho has been a good woman for restoring back the pride and honor of
this great polytechnic, years before she came into power Auchi Polytechnic was
a shadow of its self as cultism dominated the school and corruption flooded the campuses, she brought back order.
I am of the opinion that the people who are engineering this are people who she had stopped from inflicting
their wrath of corruption on the school wanting to pay her back for what she had denied them of.
Please stake your
claim on the current crisis, leave a comment
Thanks.
