JUST IN: Teachers will decide who leads Kogi –NUT chair

The Kogi State Chairman of the Nigeria Union of Teachers, Joel Salifu, has said teachers will decide who will lead the state in 2023 after the tenure of Governor Yahaya Bello.

Salifu stated this while addressing a press conference on Saturday.

He said teachers in the state were now better informed in choosing a leader who would serve their interests.

The NUT chairman said, “We will decide who comes to serve and lead us in the state. We have the numbers.

“The experience we have gone through has adequately prepared us to decide who will lead us in Kogi State in 2023, particularly with our population.

“The voices of teachers in the state would be heard loud and clear using the 2023 general elections.”

He advised teachers to collect their Permanent Voter Cards and vote during the election as this was the only way they could decide their fate and ensure better and improved working conditions.
