Some public schools in Osogbo, Osun State, early on Tuesday, shut down operations in compliance with the directive of the Nigeria Labour Congress, asking workers to embark on industrial action.
The students that had resumed at their various schools in the town, were around 9 a.m. seen on the streets around Stadium, Ayetoro and West Bye pass, Osogbo returning home.
But during a visit to some schools within the metropolis, teachers were observed in their various offices, after the students had been sent home.
Some of the schools visited include Fakunle High School, Osogbo, Saint James Grammar School and Adenle Grammar School also located in Ayetoro Area, Osogbo.
None of the teachers approached agreed to comment on record.
But a few of them who spoke but preferred anonymity said they had resumed work only to be told of the commencement of strike by labour leaders.
