Reports emerging from Enugu State suggest growing tension within the public education sector following allegations that some teachers are being pressured to register with the All Progressives Congress (APC) or risk losing their jobs.
According to multiple accounts circulating within the state, affected teachers claim the directive is being pushed through informal channels, with warnings allegedly passed down during meetings and administrative engagements. While no official circular has been made public, the reports have sparked fear and uncertainty among educators who insist that their profession should remain free from partisan politics.
Some teachers, speaking anonymously, described the situation as an abuse of power and a violation of their constitutional right to freedom of association. They warned that such actions, if confirmed, could undermine morale in public schools and distract from the core responsibility of delivering quality education.
As of the time of filing this report, the Enugu State Government has not issued an official response to the allegations. Political observers note that forced political alignment, especially within the civil service, contradicts democratic principles and established public service rules.
Civil society groups and concerned citizens are now calling for clarity and transparency from the authorities, urging the state government to address the claims promptly and protect public servants from intimidation.
FaceToFace TV will continue to monitor the situation and provide verified updates as more facts emerge.
