Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal has said he would re-assign teachers who do not possess the required qualifications.
He announced that the government will begin to train teachers to conform with modern teaching techniques.
Tambuwal
made this statement during the yearly national congress of alumni of
his alma mater, the Dogon Daji Old Boys Association (DOBA).
He mentioned that a lot of money
has been budgeted for retraining teachers, and that any teacher who
does not perform at par after this, will have to be transferred to to
other ministries and departments of government.
He said: “Those
who don’t have the requisite qualifications would be re-assigned but
will not lose their jobs. Let me announce it here that we do not plan
to retrench any teacher working with the state government. In fact, we
need more quality teachers to address shortfall in numbers.
“What
we will not condone in our schools are unqualified teachers who have
nothing to offer our children. If after giving you the necessary
training, we discovered you don’t have the capacity or enthusiasm to
teach, we will reassign you to where your expertise if most needed,” he added.
