Edo Govt Under Fire for Forcing Teachers to Cut Grass, Engage in Menial Labour

In a surprising turn of events, it has come to light that the Edo State Government is reportedly forcing teachers to perform tasks like cutting grass and doing menial work as part of their job responsibilities.

This decision has ignited a wave of anger and frustration among educators and the public, who argue that teachers—the foundation of our education system—deserve far better treatment and respect, rather than being treated like laborers.

Critics warn that this approach could demoralize teachers and further deteriorate the already struggling education system in the state. Many are left wondering why trained professionals are being asked to take on roles that are so far removed from their expertise.

Nigerians, what do you think—should teachers really be tasked with cutting grass as part of their job, or shouldn’t the government hire cleaners and maintenance staff for schools?
