Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Nigeria Union of Teachers, NUT, has called on President Bola Tinubu to declare state of emergency on security.<\/p>\n

National President of the union, Comrade Audu Amba, made the call on Monday in Abuja at the NUT 6th Annual Solemn Assembly<\/p>\n

Amba said Nigeria in recent times had recorded unprecedented security challenges and government must take decisive action to address them.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is, therefore, my humble plea that the federal government declare a state of emergency as far as the security situation did not improve.<\/p>\n

\u201cGovernment at all levels should do the needful since security is everybody\u2019s business.<\/p>\n

\u201cNothing can be achieved with insecurity in the country. So, it is imperative to move all stumbling blocks that are bedeviling the security architecture of the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is our hope that Federal, State, Local Government and all stakeholders in education should join hands to protect our schools and the education workers in Nigeria,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

On teachers\u2019 welfare, Amba asked for constitutional amendment on the funding of primary and secondary education to be on the first line charge in the revenue allocation in the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is our belief that when enacted into law, it will go a long way to address the issue of irregular salary payment of teachers across the states.<\/p>\n

\u201cTeachers\u2019 professional salary structure that is supposed to have been implemented in the year 2023, has not been accommodated in the budget as such we will continue to push for its implementation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The NUT president emphasised the need for a uniform scheme of service for all teachers adding that the union would ensure its actualisation.<\/p>\n

He urged the government to implement an acceptable and sustainable minimum wage for workers and Nigerian teachers.<\/p>\n
