Teachers in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) have chased away pupils who resumed after seven-month of Covid lockdown.

The teachers under the aegis of the FCT Council of the Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), said Area Council Chairmen in the territory have refused to implement the national minimum wage as well as payment of arrears.

When The Nation visited the LEA Primary School Kubwa, which also houses the Junior Secondary School, Kubwa, pupils had been chased out of their classrooms from as early as 8am.

Only students of the Junior Secondary school were allowed in as Secondary school teachers had been paid by the FCT Administration.
