Delta State Chapter of the Nigeria Union of Teachers, NUT, has given the state government Two weeks ultimatum to resolve issues of outstanding minimum wage payment and stagnation of graduate primary school teachers on Grade Level 14.
This is contained in a communique at the end of the Executive Council Meeting of the state Wing of NUT held at the Teachers’ House Asaba and signed by the NUT Chairman Mr Titus Okotie and the Secretary Mr Dan Basime.
The Chairman warned that the union would lead all primary school teachers across the twenty-five local governments of the state on a peaceful protest at the expiration of the two weeks ultimatum.
Mr Okotie also noted that the protest would herald the commencement of the shutdown of the primary school system in the state if their demands were not met.
The State Wing Executive Council of NUT however passed a vote of confidence on Delta State Governor Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa for the continuation of the Annual Teachers’ Award and the establishment of Technical Colleges and the Teachers Professional Development Center in the state.
