Today marked the official resumption of most schools including public primary and secondary schools...today also marks the beginning of statewide strike by teachers in Lagos State public primary and secondary schools. The teachers are said to have vowed to go on with the strike exercise since the government has refused to meet with their demands.
In case your wondering what the so called demand is...the teacher are simply asking the government for the implementation of the 27.5 percent Teachers Salary Structure (TSS) which was an agreement between the Governors' Forum and the National body of the Nigerian Union of Teachers (NUT).
I really feel for these Civil servants cos it's one thing for them to fight and get their needs met and it's another thing for them to return the said money via tax...didn't say anything o!
