Polytechnic workers in the country have announced a three-day warning strike from Wednesday, 22nd to Friday, 24th of January, 2025.

In a letter addressed to the Minister of Education, Tunji Alausa, the union’s secretary, Nura Gaya said the warning strike has become imperative to “emphasize their position concerning the ongoing plot by certain stakeholders to unjustly deprive non-teaching staff of polytechnics and similar institutions of their rightful progression.
