FCT NUT embarks on indefinite strike over minimum wage arrears
The Nigeria Union of Teachers, FCT Chapter, has embarked on an indefinite strike to press home their demands.
This is coming after a 14-day ultimatum which the union issued to the six area councils in the territory.
Pupils who went to school on Wednesday were said to have returned home disappointed, saying their teachers directed them back on getting to the school gate.
While confirming the development, Chairman of the NUT in Kubwa, Comrade Ameh Baba, said a resolution was taken before embarking on the indefinite strike.
According to him, the strike is mainly on the demand to press the six area councils in fulfilling their pledge to settle 60 percent owed minimum wage arrears.
The NUT chairman also condemned the councils over their non-implementation to pay teachers 40 percent peculiar allowance, as well as non-implementation of 25 percent and 35 percent teachers’ salary increment, respectively.
He advocated that primary education being the laying foundation of human education, should be treated with utmost care.
The union warned that “This strike we started today is just the beginning. If the government does not respond after about 7 days, we are going to picket the area council’s secretariats.”
“It would also be followed with the protest as well solidarity from the secondary schools’ teacher in the long run. But as of now it would affect the JSS 1 incoming students, because their result is due for release,” he added.
