Terrorism and recurring attacks on schools across the country have been described as a cankerworm which if left unchecked could be catastrophic to the unity of Nigeria and could adversely affect our national economy.
This was the consensus at the 7th quadrennial national delegates conference for members of the Nigeria Union of teachers held in Ibadan.
Speaking at the occasion, the National President of the NUT, Audu Titus Amba called on government at all levels to brace up and provide adequate security in and around schools across the country a standpoint other speakers at the conference also re-echoed.
The 7th Quadrennial conference organised by the teachers union sought to address the school system which experts say had in recent times suffered attacks by bandits, leading to the displacement or deaths of some of their members.
