Primary school teachers in Oyo state have protested the non-payment of grants for primary schools in the state by taking to their blackboards to write down examination questions.
The teachers under the aegis of the Nigerian Union of Teachers (NUT), Oyo state chapter, on Monday, 21 December said examination questions for pupils were written on blackboards because the state government had yet to give primary schools across the state running grants.
According to the union, primary schools in the state had not received grants for two consecutive terms, while secondary schools had not received grants for the just concluded first term.
They urged the state government to execute its free education policy, adding that the NUT has held a meeting with the state government officials on the matter, and nothing has been done yet.
