The Kwara State Universal Basic Education Board has disclosed plans to recruit 1,600 teaching and non-teaching staff from across the 16 local government areas of the state.

The KwSUBEB Chairman, Prof.  Raheem Adaramaja, disclosed this on Tuesday, explaining that the recruitment would be carried out based on the needs assessment recently conducted across the 16 LGAs.

According to a Tuesday statement by the Press Secretary of the board, Atere Ameenat, Adaramaja said the recruitment exercise followed the approval of Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq to fill the vacancies created due to retirements, deaths, or transfer of service to other states.

The statement revealed that a total of 695 Bachelor of Education degree holders, 605 Nigeria Certificate in Education holders, 200 security guards, and 111 other non-teaching staff were approved for engagement into the service of KwSUBEB.

“The recruitment is going to take place at the local government level or at the nearest communities/villages where their services are greatly needed.

“Successful candidates will sign a bond of non-movement or transfer from their new place of work for the first five years — a condition that is based on the experience of teachers not staying in the hinterlands,” the statement said.

The Board Chairman said the exercise aligns with the Governor’s commitment to strengthening the educational sector, especially at the local levels, adding that “all local government areas will be adequately represented in the process.

“The recruitment drive is part of the Governor’s commitment to strengthening the educational sector in Kwara State, ensuring that each community within the 16 LGEAs receives adequate educational resources and support,”  the chairman said.

The SUBEB Chair added that the exercise will last for three weeks from the date of commencement.
“This is because the 2024/2025 resumption date is coming up soon in September 2024,” he said, adding that the schedule of recruitment exercises across the state would soon be released.
