The development follows a meeting between Tthe representatives of the union and the state government. The latter has agreed not to exclude any sacked teacher an opportunity to considered in the recruitment of more teachers.
Speaking on the development after an emergency meeting of the union yesterday , the NUT Chairman, Comrade Audu T. Amba said the union is in support of the state government to qualitative education to pupils in the state.
He says:
He said, “The state wing of the NUT, Kaduna state met today 18th January, 2018 to review the situation in the light of the pronouncement of the Kaduna state government which was broadcast on the state media outfit the KSMC.
“The broadcast which is to the effect that the State government after a meeting with the interim chairman and Education Secretaries of the 23 local government s has decided to give the 21,780 teachers who did not pass the recent competency test another opportunity for consideration under the State Universal Education Board (SUBEB) program of continuous recruitment that will give every willing teacher a chance to apply.
“In the light of the above, SWEC unanimously resolved to reciprocate the gesture of the Kaduna State Government by calling off with immediate effect the indefinite strike action embarked upon by teachers in the public schools and secondary schools in Kaduna state.
Nice one coming from kaduna
Even motivates teachers to carryout effective responsibilities in teaching
This brings stability in the state
Am just glad this teachers termed un suitable and not qualified are given another shot
Thanks to el ruffai as well
It should be so because some of the retrenched ones feed from the teaching occupation
I also commend chairman of NUT
COMRADE AUDU for giving this teachers opportunity to get their jobs back
Children don’t need to stay longer than they should all because of strike..continuous reading and teaching sharpens their brain more
I thank the representatives and state government for finally resol ing this issue so this kids can go back to school..
Nice. Good news
The Strike was pointless in the first place. They had better go back to your villages and not teach our children rubbish.
Money has definitely changed hands ..Nigerian unions are just abunch of low life extortionist
They should have continued with their show of shamelessness na. Idiots, how do you take to civil disobedience to protest an act you should be seen championing?
Illiterates that can’t pass pri 4 tests teaching even pri 6 and above is just damn too funny and unacceptable.
The governor must stand his ground and get rid of incompetent teachers.Telling some of them to apply through SUBEB is like bringing them to the system through d back door..Quality education shouldn’t be sacrificed on the alter of politicking for 2019.Our leaders must learn to do the right things all the time
Lousy group playing cheap politics with the future of their children. Once a child has a faulty foundation in education, his/her struggle begins.
So, governor El-Rufai’s policy and position prevail, after all. That’s good for the children of Kaduna state, and kudos to the state’s NUT for the new show of support for the governor’s policy.
It’s a benevolent thing, as well, that the government will give the unqualified, sacked teachers a second chance at getting employed; this the government will do by opening another door for such teachers to undergo a continuous education program. Those who thus become properly certified can then apply for re-employment.
This has been a win-win for Kaduna
I saw it coming,it was actually a blackmail and it has failed.even if it lasted for 2 years,el rufai would not budge.hes decisive and ruthless,the kind of leader nigeria needs.up el rufai our future president.revamping education in kaduna would make it the no 1 state before year 3000
THIS STRIKE IS NEEDLESS IN THE FIRST PLACE.
IN A SANE SOCIETY, THEY.SHOULD COMMEND EL-RUFAI FOR TAKING THAT ACTION AND NOT OTHERWISE.
Instead for them to beg for their failure they are claiming right
ok oh….
There is God ooo
Only in nigeria do workers go on strike all the time
The govt should do the needful
Calling of strike..is it the right move
El rufai, how do expect all these teachers to feed their families
Nut are not on teachers side
So d nut ar on govt side
Teachers are really suffering in this country
May god help us
Nawa oo
Common to pay teachers is a big problem for the government
