The Academic Staff Union of Moshood Abiola Polytechnic, Abeokuta has warned of imminent industrial disharmony in the institution if members’ three months salaries were not paid on or before December 31st this year.
The Union said members remained particularly worried over what they considered as lackadaisical attitude of both Government and Management of the polytechnic towards their welfare.
In a letter signed by the Union’s leaders – Osifalujo Babatunde (Chairman) and Adegunle Tomisi( General Secretary) which was addressed to the Management of the polytechnic, the lecturers lamented that despite commitment of staff to duty, they had been deprived of their “monthly salaries and allowances for three (3) consecutive months” while Part-Time teaching Claims remained unpaid for Seven (7) consecutive semesters.
While the Union pledged to remain committed to the upliftment of the institution, but was also quick to add that such commitment would no longer translate to making members to be perpetually celebrating new year in penury and want.
