FCT Primary and Secondary School Teachers to Begin Indefinite Strike Tomorrow

The Federal Capital Territory chapter of the Nigeria Union of Teachers has directed all primary and secondary school teachers to start an indefinite strike from Monday. This decision followed the expiry of a seven-day ultimatum issued to the FCT Minister on March 11 over unpaid entitlements and a pending committee report on teacher welfare. While the union commended the implementation of the N70,000 minimum wage and arrears payments, it expressed concern that a committee set up in July 2025 has not published its recommendations. Parents are advised to keep their children at home until further notice. Teachers will remain on strike until all outstanding demands are fully addressed.
