836 Teachers Sacked in Edo

Following a verification exercise carried out by the department of Information and Communication
Technology, a total of 836 teachers have been sacked by the Edo State Government. The sack came after the names of the affected teachers were discovered to be missing from the December salary voucher.
The sacked teachers were also found to have overstayed,were mentally unstable, physically blind
and falsified their age and credentials.Reports say: A man who gave his name as Osahon said his wife was
affected. The state Commissioner for Basic Education, Patrick Aguinede, who confirmed the sack, said those affected were certified by the ICT after the screening. He said those that have overstayed in service gave a scenario that the state government could not recruit new teachers. “The teachers were found to have stayed above 35 years. Some were physically blind, some manipulated their results and age which later showed they finished school before they were born,” the commissioner stated.
