Six primary school teachers have died in a fatal motor accident on their way to Katsina town to cash their March Salary.

The teachers took off from Danmusa local government area where they reside and work until their death in the accident that happened along Danmusa - Batsari road, our reporter gathered.

The state chairman of Nigeria Union of Teachers Suyudi Hassan Dayi has since condoled with the families of the victims and prayed to God to grant them eternal rest.
