NUT Kura Takes Responsibility for Paying Further Education Fees for Primary and Secondary School Teachers
The Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), Kura Local Government chapter, has taken responsibility for paying the further education fees of some dedicated teachers who are voluntarily teaching in schools across Kura Local Government Area.
Speaking on the initiative, the union chairman, Comrade Abubakar Kura, said, “We have taken it upon ourselves to pay the education fees of any teacher who freely dedicates his or her time to teaching the students of Kura. On this Monday, we paid the initial NCE registration fee for one of the voluntary teachers, Asiya Surajo Sani.”
He added that the NUT would continue to pay the tuition fees of every voluntary teacher until the completion of their studies, provided they continue to teach the students of Kura free of charge.
Asiya Surajo Sani stated that she is a teacher at Ihya’ussunnah Islamiyya Primary School, Kura, where she has been teaching for nearly three years. She expressed deep appreciation to the leadership of NUT Kura for the support.
