The Nigeria Union of Teachers, NUT, has deplored the non-payment of the basic salary by some state governments since the National Minimum Wage Act was signed into law in 2018.
It warned that members nationwide would be directed to withdraw their
services if the issues are not urgently addressed.
In remarks to mark the 2021 World Teachers’ Day, the body’s National
President, Dr. Nasir Idris, stressed that following the COVID-19
pandemic, teachers needed to be adequately empowered for
effectiveness.
