Teachers took to the street of Lokoja to protest today 11th of June, 2015 over inconsistent payment of salaries, non payment of four years leave allowances and arbitrary deductions in the half salaries received since September 2013, claiming there was a shortfall in the allocation during the Jonathan's administration. They were however attacked with tear gas by the security operatives, despites the fact that it was a peaceful protest.

The government of Governor Idris Wada has been terrible for primary school teachers and local government workers in Kogi state. The governor who refused to pay primary school teachers salaries in December 2014, had also refused to pay the teachers leave bonus for the past four years and had also been paying half salaries to teacher’s since September 2013 while other civil servants in the state have been enjoying their full pay since 2011. To worsen the situation, no promotion had been implemented since 2011.

This is serious.

This is the reason private schools are flourishing. Nobody will allow his child/ward to be taught by a hungry teacher.

Yet d mumu governor has started campaigning for 2nd term and he just gave N15Million to each local government to share to people at N500 per head. Kogi has 21 LGs.

Lalasticlala fp pls... kogi state govt is deceiving the FG and the whole world think they've cleared their debts. We want everybody to know what's happening in d state. Imagine 42K salary turning to 19K
