NUT Opposes Edo Teachers’ Probe Method
By: Ebenezer Date: August 15, 2013, 2:03 am

The Nigeria Union of Teachers in Edo State
says it is against the centralization of the
ongoing audit of teachers in the state.
The NUT state Chairman, Patrick Ikosimi,
stated this in Benin on Tuesday after a
female primary school teacher failed a
reading test when the state governor,
Adams Oshiomhole, visited the venue of the
audit.
The union, which said it was in support of
the Oshiomhole-led administration
commitment to sanitising the education
sector, however frowned on the
government’s approach in flushing out bad
teachers from the school system.
Describing the inability of the teacher to
read as a great embarrassment to the union,
Ikosimi stressed that he was not surprised
at the finding.
The chairman said the union sympathised
with the government and expressed the
hope that the audit would offer an
opportunity for the state to take steps to
remove the bad eggs from the system.
Meanwhile, the three kidnapped teachers of
Orhogbua Primary School, Ekenwan in Ovia
North East Local Government of the state, on
Tuesday, regained their freedom.
The teachers – Patience Osadolor, Patience
Oroghene and Aisha Momodu – were
abducted two weeks ago in the school.
Our correspondent however could not
confirm if any ransom was paid before they
were set free.
