ADC guber candidate, Dan’iya urges action on Sokoto teachers’ salaries
The African Democratic Congress, ADC, governorship candidate in Sokoto State, Manir Dan’iya, has called on the state government to urgently address salary delays and employment uncertainties affecting teachers.
Dan’iya made the call in a statement issued on Monday by his media aide, Aminu Abdullahi, to mark the 2026 World Teachers’ Day.
He expressed concern over reports of delays in the payment of September 2026 salaries of primary school teachers.

“You cannot build a strong education system while the people entrusted with educating our children are worried about whether their salaries will be paid, whether their appointments will stand, or whether they will receive the training and professional support required to do their jobs effectively,” Dan’iya said.

He also raised concerns over reports that about 4,000 teachers were removed from the state payroll after the current administration assumed office.
Dan’iya said payroll deletions should not automatically be interpreted as formal dismissal and urged the government to clarify the status of the affected workers.
