More reactions continue to trial the strike action embarked upon by some unions of tertiary institutions in the country describing it as worrisome as it will further compound the problems of the education sector.

ait.live spoke to a cross section of students at the Plateau State polytechnic on the situation.

The quality of Tertiary education in Nigeria has continued to plunge as a result of unending strike actions by unions within the institutions.

Chairman of the Academic Staff Union Of Polytechnics Plateau state chapter says government must salvage what is left of public tertiary education.

The Students say if government fails to intervene then it should be ready to face the consequences of keeping young people at home.

They all called on stakeholders to value education since it forms the bedrock for any meaningful development .

The Plateau state polytechnic joined other polytechnics nationwide to embark on a 2 weeks waring strike, but the institution has had its calendar seriously distorted by a series of internal strikes because of disputes between the Plateau state government and unions of the institution.
