Lecturers of Moshood Abiola Polytechnic, Abeokuta under the aegis of Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics have embarked on an indefinite strike.
The Chairman of the Union, Kola Abiola made this known after the union’s congress held on the institution’s campus.
Abiola noted that their action was caused by the failure of the state government to yield to their demands on better ways to deal with controversies surrounding the conversion of the 38-year old polytechnic to a university.
