The Nigeria Union of Teachers on Saturday
warned the Lagos State Government against coercing its members to
resume for the 2014/2015 academic session on Monday.
The warning came as the union alleged
that the state government had not....
provided any Ebola Virus Disease kit
in schools in the state.
The state NUT Chairman, Mr. Segun Raheem, made this known. Raheem, who insisted that members of the
union would not resume until the EVD facilities were in place in
schools, noted that the state government had resorted to intimidation to
force them to resume on Monday.
According to him, the state government
has summoned all public school heads to Alausa, Ikeja for an emergency
meeting on Sunday (today).
However, the National Association of Proprietors of Private Schools in
the South-West met on Saturday in Ibadan, Oyo State and resolved that
its members in Lagos and Ondo states would resume on Monday.
According to him, NAPPS members in the
zone have not only provided the EVD kits, they have also trained their
teachers on the basic rudiments of checking the virus.
Otubela, while decrying the position of
the Lagos NUT on resumption date, noted that the state government had
declared the state Ebola-free.
Share your thoughts....thanks!
