Strike: Settle teachers in seven days or face mass protest, CDHR dares Okowa
Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa


The Committee for Defence of Human Rights, CDHR, Delta State Chapter has given seven days ultimatum to the Delta State Governor, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa with effect from Tuesday March 21 to settle teachers to enable them call off their strike or face mass protest, Fresh Angle International can authoritatively report.  

Our Delta Central Correspondent reports that the Chairman of CDHR, Comrade Kehinde Prince Taiga who handed down the ultimatum while speaking to journalists in Warri, said  if Governor Okowa fails to adhere to the call, the body will mobilize over six million Deltans across the country,  including parents, guardians and students of higher institutions to stage the protest.

He said, CDHR is giving 7 days ultimatum to the Governor of the State, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa to pay all arrears and settle other grievances of the teachers for them to go back to work or face the wrath of the body”.

According to him, the leadership of Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan who many claimed  was corrupt, built schools and paid teachers regularly, “but since the inception of Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa ‘s  administration, education has suffered great set back”.

Comrade Taiga said, “it is not enough to patch roads without taking care of the welfare of teachers as there is no importance attached to roads if the students remain at home and become wayward in life”.
