TRCN calls for implementation of safe school guidelines

The Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria, TRCN, has called for the full implementation of the Safe Schools Declarations guidelines endorsed by Nigeria in 2015.
Registrar of the Council, Josiah Ajiboye, made the call at the 2022 National Delegates Conference of the Nigeria Union of Teachers, NUT, in Ibadan, Oyo State capital.
Ajiboye noted that at least 2,295 teachers were killed in the North East between 2009 – 2022, while over 19,000 others have been displaced, and over 910 schools damaged or destroyed due to the conflict.
The Registrar urged the Federal Government to review its security architecture to address the deteriorating security situation because of terrorism and violent attacks on education.
