Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT)

The Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) may begin a nationwide strike in two weeks, if the Federal Government refuses to meet its demands which it tabled before FG a while back

 

Speaking yesterday in Abuja, during this year’s World Teacher’s Day celebration with the theme: Valuing Teachers, Improving Their Status, Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) National President Michael Olukoya described the current status of teachers as deplorable.

He said: “The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) president and I are on the same page. It is time for us to take the bull by the horn. It is customary of us that after two weeks of celebration of World Teacher’s Day, we hold our meetings and we also call for situation report – state-by-state – pertaining to the demands of Nigerian teachers.

“If in two weeks we meet and nothing positive happens, do not wait for any other directive. We will call out Nigerian teachers for a strike.”
