The Academic Staff Union of Secondary Schools (ASUSS) has asked the leadership of the Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT) to embrace peace as the union has come to stay.
National President of ASUSS, Mr Samuel Omaji, and the Secretary-General of the union, Mr Sola Adigun, said this in a statement made available to newsmen in Lagos as a reaction to NUT claim that ASUSS is not (and can never be) a trade union in Nigeria.
The duo described the NUT position as laughable.
They said it was not only that NUT had lost grip over the secondary school teachers in no fewer than 25 out of the 36 states of the federation, but it also lacks the constitutional power to determine its existence or otherwise.
NUT alleges fresh plots to destabilise primary, secondary education guardian.ng - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from guardian.ng Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
Teachers in the secondary schools in Nigeria have been advised to disregard claims by the splinter group, Academic Staff Union of Secondary Schools (ASUSS), that the Supreme Court, on January 15, 2021, delivered judgment granting it autonomy as a new trade union.
