This paper examines the recurring issue of incessant teachers' strikes in Nigeria, the underlying causes, consequences, and potential resolutions. It identifies the root causes of the persistent strikes, analyzes their impact on the education system, and explores viable solutions to mitigate or prevent future disruptions. Factors contributing to the recurrent strikes, such as inadequate funding, poor working conditions, policy inconsistencies, and labour disputes were observed. The paper underscores the detrimental effects of these strikes on the continuity of learning, educational outcomes, and the overall stability of the Nigerian education sector. In addressing these matters, the paper explores potential solutions such as robust dialogue and negotiation mechanisms, improved funding for education, and the development of sustainable policies that prioritize the welfare of teachers. Suggestions are made for comprehensive reforms in the education sector to foster a more conducive and stable environment for teaching and learning. The implications of this research extend to education policymakers, administrators, teachers' unions, and other stakeholders involved in shaping educational policies and practices in Nigeria
