Workers, including staff of Colleges of Education, kept faith with Government and chose to endure the untold hardship thinking it would be only for a while as Government promised to roll out palliative measures including significant increase in salaries.<\/p>\n<p>According to him \u201cthe present salary of staff of Colleges of Education was approved in the year 2010 \u2013 13 years ago! This means we have been on the same salary since 2010 while petrol price rose intermittently from N65\/N70 in 2010 to N650 in 2023 (tenfold increase).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur salary structure which is subject to renegotiation at 3-year interval has remained static for 13 years, skipping four due renegotiations. It is ludicrous that Government has refused to return to the negotiation table on the welfare package for staff after the Union, prior to the removal of fuel subsidy, had proposed 200% increase in salary as against Government offer of a ridiculous 35% for Chief Lecturers and 23% for other cadres.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that the capabilities of members of COESU to sustain hope were already exhausted, the price of petrol rose further to N650 per litre.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow, the leadership of the Union has been inundated by members\u2019 complaints that they could no longer go to work as a result of hike in the price of petrol and resultant high cost of transportation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAgainst this backdrop, it has become inevitable for the Union to direct members to go to work only two days weekly while an emergency NEC meeting shall be convened to ratify this decision and decide on the specific days of the week members are to go to work.<\/p>\n<p>He added \u201cWe call on the FG to urgently do the needful because the inevitable action of the Union against this hardship will have devastating effects on the students as it will lead to a prolonged academic calendar \u2013 a semester of 16 weeks will become 32 weeks or more; while Teaching Practice exercise of 6 months will become 12 months.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe call on His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to quickly address the issue of salary adjustment for staff of Colleges of Education. We believe in the capacity of the President to address this problem as he did when he was the Governor of Lagos State where he so generously increased the salaries of staff in the then Lagos State-owned Colleges of Education that they became the highest paid nationwide.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Says decision is as a result of the hike in the price of
