Hundreds of recruited teachers early Friday morning took to the streets in Kakata, Margibi County in demand of salaries and salary arrears.
Our Correspondent says the teachers numbering over three hundred blocked the road leading to Nimba County, where the official 26 celebrations are being held.
The roadblocks were however removed following the intervention of Unmil and Liberia National Police officers.
Recruited teachers in Montserrado also took to the streets protesting delays to settle their three months salary arrears.
The Education Ministry earlier assured the teachers, they would have been paid by Thursday.
But the Ministry’s Public Affairs Director ld told Star Radio, some misunderstandings stalled the process.
Mr. Maxim Bleethan called on the teachers to remain calm assuring that payment would be made on Saturday.
