The National President of Nigeria Union of Teachers, Mr Michael Olukoya, has blamed Nigeria’s failure to meet some of the Millennium Development Goals – MDGs on the nation’s inability to set right priorities for the education sector.


The NUT President made the statement at the Eagles Square during an event to mark the 2015 World Teachers’ Day in Abuja.
The occasion featured parade by teachers in the Federal Capital Territory.
According to him, other post MDGs agenda targeted at reducing poverty and improving healthcare are also doomed except education is given the attention it deserves.
On security matters, the NUT President expressed sadness that over 600 teachers have died due to acts of terrorism in the northern part of the country.
