Some students under the umbrella of National Association of Polytechnic Students have threatened to storm Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja with the aim of interrupting domestic and international flights starting from Monday, if their demands are not met by Federal Government.
President of NAPS, Mr Sunday Asuku, urged ASUP and the Federal Government to reach a compromise or risk nationwide protest by the students. “We have written to them but they have declined. The Federal Government workers are being paid their salaries and allowances likewise our lecturers, so who is going to pay the students for time wastage.”
“As a student body, we are interested in the government paying the lecturers their minimum wage which is accrued to two years. The Minister stressed that the responsibility lies with the union to be fair on the students by calling off the strike. “When ASUP wanted to start this strike, we wrote them and said everything that ASUP requested for has been agreed upon, we do not have one area of disagreement.
