Kaduna Division of the National Industrial Court of Nigeria, on Thursday 14th December, 2017 ordered Kaduna State government to stop the planned sack of 21,780 primary school teachers who failed competency test, pending court injunction.
The teachers had dragged the government before the industrial court asking the court to restrain the government from dismissing or disengaging any teacher on the basis of the test conducted in June 2017.
The teachers’ counsel filed a motion of “interlocutory injunction”, seeking stay of action pending the outcome of the case.
The presiding judge, Hon. Justice Lawal Mani granted the application pending the determination of the substantive suit and adjourned the case to February 6th, 2018.
