There are Thirteen states in Nigeria who have not paid their teachers salaries, according to Nigeria Union Teachers (NUT).
Osun State is number, owing staffs 28 months followed by Nasarawa, 26, Kogi 25, Benue 12 and Ekiti nine months.
NUT President, Comrade Alogba Olukoya, disclosed this at the union’s 2018 annual meeting.
He said the union is compiling reports from across the states before embarking on the strike. He added that both primary and secondary school teachers are affected.
“When we get report on salary, if it is not encouraging we will embark on strike. The next is the state of decays in our schools’ laboratories and libraries,” he said.
Olukoya appealed to the states to pay or begin to see the wrath of the Nigerian teachers. He, however, said Benue state will be excused from the strike because of the security challenges affecting the state at the moment.
