By Yarima Haruna,Kebbi

Kebbi state Nigeria union of teachers under comrade Zaki Sarki SK has condemned and rejected an old,edited and doctored video circulating on social media with false contents laced with unverified and largely untrue claim on poor education funding and poor pay for teachers in Kebbi state.
Comrade Zaki in a statement on Monday reacting to disparaging comments and malicious allegations against the governor in education described the originator of the doctored video as a sponsored agent by desperate infamous opposition politicians in Kebbi state bent on discrediting and rubbishing the visible efforts of the present administration in education and all sectors in Kebbi state.

The unionists  rejected the allegations as a ploy to gain cheap popularity by instigating teachers and workers against the government that has breathed life into a near dead education sector in Kebbi state before he took mantle of leadership in the state.

Records revealed that governor Idris made Kebbi state teachers salaries on less than eighteen thousand minimum wage and swiftly reviewed it to seventy five thousand which the originator is aware but chosed not to mention it because his eyes were closed to any positive development in the state.
