Following the federal government’s insistence on keeping September 22nd
as schools’ resumption date, the Nigerian Union of Teachers (NUT) has
threatened to go on strike.
The union said that it would not
allow any of its members to teach until it was scientifically and
medically proven that the country was free of the deadly Ebola Disease
Virus.
But the Federal Government says there is no going back on
the date since there is no scientific basis for schools to remain shut
beyond the September 22 resumption date announced.
The Nigerian Medical Association, as well as other professional bodies
have called for the extension of the resumption date for primary and
secondary schools until the country is free of the the Ebola Virus
Disease, EVD.
