Kwara govt shortlists 1,811 basic school teachers, attendants for employment
The Kwara State Universal Basic Education Board said it shortlisted 1,811 applicants for employment.
A statement on Tuesday said the shortlisted names were from the 55,713 applicants from across Kwara.
”The breakdown includes 1,500 teachers, mostly from STEM subjects, and 311 non-teaching staff comprising drivers, security guards, and office assistants for schools in the 16 local government areas of the state.
“Successful applicants with valid phone numbers have since been contacted for their letters,” it explained.
KWSUBEB added, ”Documentation started on Monday, January 6, with successful applicants from Kwara North; Tuesday, January 7, is for new hires from Kwara South, while Wednesday, January 8, is for successful candidates from Kwara Central.”
KWSUBEB chairman, Sheu Adaramaja, said the process focused more on hiring persons who would stay in their place of assignment.
”This underscores why the board sought nominations of competent and qualified hands from rural communities to bridge the manpower needed in the hinterlands,” said Mr Adaramaja.
