The Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) has demanded the Ekiti State Government to resolve the issue of teachers’ stagnation at level 14 in the civil service and give them the opportunity of getting to level 17.

The union also urged teachers in the state to continue to be professionals in their line of duties.

The NUT National President, Nasir Idris, gave the charge while inaugurating a multi-million naira water factory established by the Ekiti chapter in the state.

Idris, represented by a former Ekiti NUT chairman, Samuel Akosile, said the factory was another innovation and development by the teachers.

In his speech, the Ekiti NUT chairman, Oke Emmanuel, while reeling out his achievements to mark his one year in office, said the water factory would boost the image and economic status of the union.

He said he had procured one “Mikano generator”, refurbished the union bus, and made the environment at the union’s secretariat more conducive.

The Ekiti State Governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi, who was represented by the permanent secretary in the state’s Ministry of Education, Dr Folakemi Olomojobi, promised to safeguard the interest of teachers.

He warned that anyone who assaults teachers would be prosecuted to checkmate the excesses of some parents recorded in recent times.
