Omo, Naija wey sabi how to gree no gree, e don reach time for teachers wey dey suffer! National President of Nigeria Union of Teachers, Audu Amba, don yan say make some states no slack! Dem get two weeks to implement new minimum wage for primary school teachers, or wahala go dey!
Amba talk am strong during di National Executive Council meeting wey happen for Abuja, e no hide am. E mention states like Gombe and Yobe as dem wey still dey hold teachers down, while others dey enjoy di new minimum wage of N70,000. Na wetin we go do about di matter? Na calamity! E talk say how teachers go dey collect N30,000 when others dey ball for N70,000, no be fair at all.
This matter don dey drag since last year, and Amba dey vex! E don talk say make teachers for dis affected states write to dia governors sharp sharp, tell dem say dem go strike if dem no implement di wage. Na so we dey run things for Naija, abi? If dem no do wetin dem suppose do, dem go know wahala go land!
Amba no wan hear say wetin dey happen na compromise between union leaders and government, because no be small matter. Di teachers don dey carry di heavy load for ground, and e no go continue like this. Di union don dey prepare teachers make dem sabi if e reach time for strike action, and we all know say na wetin e be!
As e be, state chapters suppose report back to national body within two weeks on wetin dem don do. Amba don make am clear say if dem no take action, dem go face di music! Na so school go fit shut down for states wey no show yellow light for minimum wage matter. Na wetin di teachers dey fight for, and dem go fight am till di finish!
