The Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Wing, has officially suspended its indefinite strike, directing primary school teachers across all six Area Councils to resume full classroom duties immediately.

The decision follows high-level interventions by the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, and formal commitments from the Area Council Chairmen regarding the implementation and payment of outstanding wage awards, arrears, and statutory allowances.

Primary Disputes and Agreed Resolution Terms
The industrial action, which had grounded public primary education across the territory, was triggered by delayed welfare implementations by Area Council administrations:
- Payment of Wage Award Arrears: The FCT Administration and Area Council chairmen agreed to a structured clearance template for outstanding national wage award arrears owed to primary school teachers.
- Implementation of Minimum Wage Adjustments: Commitments were formalized to align primary school staff compensation structures with approved federal salary adjustments.
- Promotion Arrears & Allowances: The Area Council Chairmen pledged to allocate dedicated percentages of local government allocations toward liquidating long-standing promotion arrears and hazard allowances.
Directives to School Heads and Parents
Following the suspension notice issued by NUT FCT Chairman, teachers have returned to their respective primary schools to resume teaching activities and recalibrate academic timetables.
Parents and guardians across the six Area Councils—Abuja Municipal (AMAC), Gwagwalada, Kuje, Bwari, Abaji, and Kwali—are advised to send their children and wards back to school as academic calendars resume nationwide.
