Rector begs Ekiti poly staff to resume work

She said this yesterday during a meeting with staff of the institution that defied the directive of their unions not to resume.
The workers have been on strike since January 5 this year over issues bordering on  welfare.
Akande, who lamented the rate at which misinformation and falsification were being peddled by the erstwhile unions’ leaders of the polytechnic, said arrangements have been concluded to pay all outstanding dues owed the cooperatives arising from the implementation of the second phase of CONTISS 15.
She added that the institution’s Governing Council, acting within the powers conferred on it, took the decision to suspend all unions’ activities on campus in good faith, so that peace could return to the polytechnic. While begging staff to go back to work not minding threats by the suspended unions’ leaders, the rector again appealed to the teaching staff to have the love of the students at heart, more-so that the polytechnic is yet to complete the 2013/2014 academic session due to series of industrial unrest in the polytechnic.
