Teachers in Abuja have joined their counterparts across the country to hit the streets to register their discontent with the continued attacks on educational facilities across the country.

Led by the national leadership of the Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), those involved carried placards bearing different inscriptions.

They marched through several roads and locations in Abuja, chanting solidarity songs in demand of the release of teachers and school children kidnapped in Oyo and Borno States some weeks ago.
