ASUU strike will not affect Auchi Poly conference – Director
Director, Centre for Gender Studies, Auchi Polytechnic, Auchi, Edo State, Dr. Helen Uhuamwagho has assured that the labour dispute between the Federal Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), will not affect the forthcoming international conference schedule to hold at the polytechnic from January 21 to 24.
In a statement made available to The Guardian, Uhuamwagho said the conference would still hold as scheduled.
“So far, we have received encouraging responses from participants for the conference. The strike will not in any way affect it if by then the dispute is not resolved, because the school is in session, except for academic activities,” she added.
The conference whose theme is Implementing and sustaining gender mainstreaming in a globalised world, is being coordinated by the institution’s Centre for Gender Studies.
