FAQs

What does it mean when a polytechnic is not under ASUU?

Polytechnics in Nigeria are not under the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) because ASUU is a union specifically for academic staff in universities. Polytechnics are represented by a different union known as the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP). Therefore, when people say a polytechnic is not under ASUU, it simply means that its lecturers and academic staff belong to ASUP instead of ASUU.

Which union represents lecturers in Nigerian polytechnics?

Lecturers in Nigerian polytechnics are represented by the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP). ASUP handles matters relating to welfare, salaries, working conditions, and industrial actions for polytechnic lecturers, just as ASUU does for university lecturers. This is why polytechnics are not directly affected when ASUU embarks on a nationwide university strike, although they may have their own strikes organized by ASUP.

Can polytechnics go on strike even if they are not under ASUU?

Yes, polytechnics can still go on strike even though they are not under ASUU. Their strikes are usually organized by ASUP or other relevant unions within the polytechnic system. So while they are not affected by ASUU strikes, they may experience academic disruptions if ASUP decides to take industrial action over unresolved issues with the government.

Are federal, state, and private polytechnics all outside ASUU?

Yes, all polytechnics in Nigeria—whether federal, state, or private—are outside ASUU because ASUU is strictly a university-based union. Federal and state polytechnics fall under ASUP for academic staff matters, while private polytechnics may have internal arrangements but are still not affiliated with ASUU.
