Teachers end strike in Kano
The strike was
embarked upon jointly by the academic staff of Kano State
Polytechnic,Sa`adatu Rimi College of Education, Aminu Kano College of
Islamic and Legal Studies as well as College of Arts, Science and
Remedial Studies. The Commissioner for Higher Education, Aisha Ismail,
stated that all the parties were able to reach an agreement to call off
the strike ‘‘based on mutual trust’’. She noted that in view of the
fact that Kano is the most populous state in the country, available
infrastructure in its institutions were over-stretched due to
increasing number of student’s enrolment. Ismail reiterated
government’s commitment to the provision of necessary facilities and
structures at the institutions, through various strategies, including
Public Private Partnership.
