Delta NUT Hails Oborevwori Over Career Progression For Graduate Primary School Teachers

The Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), Delta State Wing, has applauded Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, for approving enhanced career progression for university graduate teachers in the state’s public primary schools, describing the decision as a significant milestone in improving teachers’ welfare and strengthening the education sector.

The union said the governor’s intervention had addressed a long-standing challenge that had limited the career advancement of graduate teachers in the primary school system, noting that the development would boost morale and further enhance service delivery across public schools.

In a letter jointly signed by the State Chairman, Comrade Poubeni Dickson, and the Assistant Secretary-General, Comrade Dan Basime, the NUT said the approval reflected the Oborevwori administration’s commitment to rewarding professionalism and investing in quality education.

According to the union, the policy would elevate the status of graduate teachers, improve motivation and encourage greater dedication to teaching, ultimately translating into better learning outcomes for pupils across the state.

The union assured the governor that teachers would reciprocate the gesture with renewed commitment, higher productivity and sustained professionalism in the discharge of their responsibilities.
