 Still on academics, the national leadership of the academic staff unit of Polytechnics ASAP has issued a 30-day ultimatum to the federal government to release the 15 billion error-approved last year as a first portion of funds meant to address the decayed infrastructure in the sector as well as minimum wage arrears. Presenting the press conference in Yola shortly after the 102nd NEC meeting of the union, the national president of the association, Anderson Ezebe, fought at the Nigerian government for partial implementation of resolutions upon which the union suspended its April 2010 strike. Ezebe said that the union would embark on industrial action to press home their demands and also expressed worries over the manipulation of the 2019 Polytechnic Act by some governing councils of Polytechnics where the process of the appointment of rectors and other management staff is violated. The 102nd meeting of the union's national executive council has resolved to give the government a further one month as an ultimatum to address the outstanding issues as listed or face a review of the suspended industrial action by our union. We are deploying this medium to equally appeal to members of the public to prevail on the government to do the needful and avoid a shutdown of the sector. In choosing to extend the long-espired three-month suspension period of our industrial action, we are convinced that the extra window of one month typifies our level of restraint and consideration for our students and other members of the public, even as we hope that this government will take advantage of this opportunity to avoid a shutdown of the sector. Our union's national executive council shall be reconvening after this one month period which takes effect from the 4th of April 2022 for further decisions on this subject.
