Taraba Teachers Threaten Governor Agbu Kefas Over Four Months’ Salary Arrears Ahead of 2027 Elections
The Nigerian Union of Teachers (NUT) in Taraba State has warned Governor Agbu Kefas to pay four months’ outstanding salary arrears or risk losing the political support of over 20,000 teachers ahead of the 2027 governorship election.
State NUT chairman Nathan Solomon Tsa’asen stressed teachers’ electoral influence, saying their votes would no longer be taken for granted. While part of the salary backlog stems from previous administrations, he insisted it remains the current government’s responsibility to clear it.
The warning comes amid ongoing challenges in the state’s education sector, where the free education policy has left classrooms overcrowded, dilapidated, and lacking basic learning materials, demoralising both teachers and students.
