The Senior Staff Association of Nigeria Polytechnics, SSANIP, Federal Polytechnic, Bali chapter, has directed its members to join a nationwide three-day warning strike scheduled to commence at midnight on Monday.
According to a notice signed by the Secretary of SSANIP, Adamu Saidu Jen, the directive was issued by the chapter Executive Committee on Sunday, following resolutions reached at the union’s National Executive Council, NEC, and General Executive Council, GEC, meeting held on November 11, 2026.
“All SSANIP members at the institution are expected to withdraw their services throughout the strike period in strict compliance with the directive of the union’s National Secretariat,” the notice stated.
The directive said the industrial action was aimed at compelling the federal government to address two major outstanding demands: the immediate payment of delayed CONTTA arrears and the full implementation of the 2026 renegotiated agreement between the Federal Government and SSANIP.
The union further directed members to stay away from their duty posts throughout the three-day warning strike, adding that a monitoring and enforcement task force would be deployed across the campus to ensure compliance.
It stated that normal official duties were expected to resume on Thursday, November 19, 2026, pending further directives from the national leadership.
The Chapter Executive Committee appealed to members to remain united and demonstrate solidarity throughout the industrial action, expressing appreciation for their patience, resilience and commitment to the union’s struggle.
