NUT Demands Immediate Release of Kidnapped Teachers and Pupils

Описание: The Nigerian Union of Teachers has called on relevant authorities and security agencies to intensify efforts toward the immediate release of kidnapped teachers and pupils in Oyo State, as well as abducted learners in Askira Uba, Borno State.

Speaking during the union’s national solidarity rally for kidnapped teachers and pupils across the country, the National President of NUT, Audu Titus Amba, described attacks on schools as a direct threat to the future of Nigeria.

He stressed that educational institutions must remain safe spaces for learning and development, urging government at all levels to strengthen security around schools and communities.

Amba also explained the union’s decision to direct primary and secondary school teachers in Oyo State to embark on a statewide strike, noting that the situation was particularly tragic because teachers were abducted alongside pupils and two teachers reportedly lost their lives during the incident.

The union reaffirmed its commitment to advocating for the safety, welfare, and protection of teachers and learners across Nigeria.
