0 214

The Nigeria Union Of Teachers NUT has dismissed representations in the media suggesting the 15 January 2021 judgement of the supreme court gave recognition for a new trade union knowns as Academic Staff Union of Secondary School Teachers. Putting the record straight, Deputy National President of the NUT Comrade Kelvin Nwankwo at a media conference in Abuja dismissed the report as false saying the matter before the apex court borders on the jurisdiction of a federal high court to grant the rescinding order sought by the Union against the Minister of labour and productivity to unilaterally register ASUSS as a trade union contrary to section 3254 of the trade union act. He however advised secondary school teachers not to fall prey of the media propaganda aimed at deceiving unsuspecting professional colleagues in Nigeria. The Teachers body however, is not leaving any stone unturned to ensure it gets justice as it disclosed plans to stop persons that have sympathy for ASUSS but still enjoys negotiated benefits of the union The union further urged secondary school teachers not to be deceived as NUT will continue to build on several of it’s achievements including the 65 years retirement age and 40 years of service for teachers among others targeted at advancing the Teaching profession.
