The Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP), Nuhu Bamalli Polytechnic chapter, Zaria in Kaduna State, has declared an indefinite strike, effective Tuesday, September 30, 2025.
The branch chairman, Usman Suleiman, announced this in a statement issued on Monday.
Suleiman said the decision followed a meeting with the Kaduna State Government, where the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Education appealed for patience, saying Governor Uba Sani had “impliedly approved” their demands.
Suleiman stated that the union resolved to withdraw its services until a formal approval was granted by the governor.

“After due deliberations, the unions unanimously resolved that members shall withdraw their services until the governor’s approval is officially granted,” Suleiman said.
The ASUP chairman recalled that the congress had earlier mandated the leadership to embark on an indefinite strike should the Polytechnic Salary Structure (PSS) not be implemented after payment of the September 2025 salary.
The union’s demands include the implementation of CONPCASS/CONTEDISS salary structures for staff of state tertiary institutions and the extension of the 65-year retirement age to non-academic staff, as approved for academic staff.
