Discontinue Npower - NUT urges FG

The Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) on Tuesday called Federal Government to scrap Npower as it fails to render the desired benefits.

Nigerian Union Of Teacher's President, Nasir Idris, said this at the 2019 solemn assembly of the union held annually to begin the year by its members.

He said that there is an urgent need to recruit more teachers into our schools on a permanent basis as against the N-Power teaching program, which does not render the desired benefits and should be discontinued.

He claimed that there are qualified teachers that are waiting to be employed. That is why we want government to stop that one (N-Power) let them recruit qualified teachers to manage our schools.
