The new Executive Secretary of the National Commission for the Colleges of Education (NCCE), Professor Baffa Aliyu Muhammadu, has said the standards for the improvement of effective teaching will be strengthened.
Professor Muhammadu made the pledge after taking over leadership of the commission from his predecessor, Professor Monday Joshua, in Abuja. He said the commission would work towards the production of quality teachers by improving minimum standards in teacher development.
Professor Joshua called on the commission’s officials to support the executive secretary.
In a related development, former Director of the National Library, Malam Habib Jato, has called on his successor, Prof. Lanre O. Aina, to improve awareness campaign particularly among the elite about the importance of public libraries with a view to attracting more funding and patronage during a recent handover ceremony in Abuja.
Prof. Aina said he will ensure that all projects left by his predecessor were completed.
