Kwara govt to end teachers' salary crises

Date: 2016-06-22

Kwara State Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed has said his administration is committed to finding a lasting solution to the lingering salary crises at its basic education level.

Ahmed, who spoke during a meeting with education stakeholders, was worried at the plight of primary and junior secondary teachers as well as other workers who are being owed salaries, a situation he linked to the drop in federal allocation.

He said he is working with stakeholders to come up with a robust plan that will bring succor to the affected workers.

The governor said though the councils were responsible for salaries and pensions at the local government level, the state remained committed to ensuring the welfare of all categories of workers.

Governor Ahmed emphasized that the Federal Government's fresh bailout package for states "is a budget support scheme, which is to enable states implement their budget in view of the current economic realities". He added that the package was not extended to local councils because the Federal Government could not afford it.

Present at the meeting were the Secretary to the State Government (SSG) Alhaji Isiaka Gold; Chief of Staff Yusuf Babatunde Abdulwahab; Head of Service Hajia Zainab Umar and Commissioner for Education Alhaji Musa Yeketi.

Others are Permanent Secretary, State Universal Basic Education (SUBEB) Dr. Oladimeji Dasuki; Chairman, Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) Comrade Musa Abubakar and representatives of the All Nigeria Conference of Principals of Secondary Schools (ANCOPS).
