Teachers; Our Own Enemies - angry Bashiru Adamu fires critics after court calls-off teachers strike

 

 “So, can’t teachers have a strong love and unity that can exist between them forever?” – a netizen who is non-educationist quizzes following some unsupported comments that were passed by some teachers when their union leaders were in the battle field fighting for their welfare when they called for an effective strike on 4^th November, 2022 which has been called-off by court. 

Our union leaders are doing their best but the actions of some of we the teachers in the classroom are the main cause of our own problems. A teacher seeing his or her other colleagues as less knowledgeable, spreading all sort of false information about him or her. What happens if the community hears the defamatory words? They believe that but sees you the person causing that with a different eye. More than 90 percent of both private and government sectors keep their oath of secrecy. A nurse may be the cause of the death of a patient but you will never hear that. Teacher makes spelling mistakes and that becomes a topic of the day in the community. Teachers, it is high time we stopped blaming our leaders and started blaming ourselves.

"Yes, I lost my daughter during delivery at a hospital (name withheld). They classified it as breached extraction. After further investigations, we found out that it was a mistake of the midwife on duty, at this time, we followed it to court and she was defended by her authorities’’. One teacher recounted sadly.

Teachers, let’s come together once again and fight for our welfare!!!!!
