Edo Govt Under Fire for Allegedly Forcing Teachers to Cut Grass

The Edo State Civil Society Coalition on Human Rights condemns the State Ministry of Education for allegedly forcing teachers in public schools to engage in menial labor like cutting grass. The group criticizes the ministry for compelling teachers to perform tasks outside their job descriptions, deeming it a violation of human rights and an insult to the teaching profession.

They threaten to protest and take legal action if the government does not stop this practice and ensure teachers are not subjected to degrading tasks. The coalition advocates for fair treatment of teachers and proper employment of support staff for school maintenance.
