…implementation of minimum wage from Yayi
By James Ogunnaike, Abeokuta
Teachers in Ogun State have called for the abolition of the Contributory Pension Scheme (CPS), full implementation of the National Minimum Wage, the Teachers’ Peculiar Salary Structure (TPSS) and other improved welfare packages, as they presented a comprehensive charter of demands to the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship aspirant, Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola.
The demands were presented during an interactive session between the senator and teachers drawn from various education unions and professional associations across the state at the Ake Palace Ground, Abeokuta.
While acknowledging Adeola’s numerous interventions in the education sector over the years, the teachers stressed that any meaningful reform in the sector must prioritise the welfare and motivation of educators.
