There is a snippet of Nigeria Tribune Report here where governor Mimiko appears to predicate his government’s approval on the global economic meltdown…
Mimiko said the current global economic recession had affected Nigeria with its attendant effects on the resources available to the state. However, a circular from the office of the state Head of Service, Mr. Ajose Ikudehinbu, following the negotiation, said those with professional qualifications would be entitled to 27.5 per cent of basic salary while those without it would get 12.5 per cent.
One can only be a cynic for too long. To say, how are teachers due connected in substance to the global economic issue ?
Let’s hope the Teachers enjoy the marginal increases this may mean to them…
