There is ongoing press conference and demonstration organized by the sunset teachers who were sacked by the administration of Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq.
The sacked workers numbering over 2,414 were all sacked from their teaching work since 24th of December 2020, with the government insisting that due process were not followed in their engagement. The sack has rendered many of the teachers jobless and put their dependants in greater difficulty.
*The workers are out in their large numbers to pass a message to the general public as well as the Kwara State Government.*
The press conference and demonstration currently holding inside the Nigeria Union of Journalist Hall (NUJ), Ilorin, is one of the steps being taken by the affected workers to gain a reinstatement by the government. There were previous protests to the Kwara State House of Assembly, the family house of the governor in Adewole, among other sundry efforts.
