UZO-UWANI, Enugu, Nigeria – A primary school teacher on #43,000 monthly in Enugu has resigned, stressing that the salary cannot pay his bill under this poor economy.

The teacher, Okoro John, who worked in Central School Opanda, Uzo-Uwani was employed as a Class Teacher 13th February, 2017, but dropped his resignation letter October 2, 2023.

He said: ” I am happy writing this and I regret being a primary school teacher. If I started my journey as an apprentice when I started this work I could have gone far in business”, he said.

The teacher said he cannot combine teaching with business and that he has to give way for others who need it.

“What can #43,000 do in this type of economic hardship? I pay house rent, I feed myself and family, build house and even buy a car.

“Please do the needful to others so that primary school teacher and education will be great again”, he advised Chairman, Enugu State Universal Basic Education Board, ENSUBEB
