Gombe State Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya has approved the recruitment of 1,000 teachers by Gombe State Teachers’ Service Commission.

The chairman of the commission, Na’omi Philip Maiguwa, said this was as a result of the governor’s genuine concern over shortage of teachers in public secondary schools across the state.

She said Yahaya also approved the transfer of 288 staff of the State Universal Basic Education Board who had applied for transfer of service from the board for placement into the state’s Ministry of Education’s secondary schools and technical colleges. 

“This development is one of the steps the governor has taken to turn around the fortunes of education in the state. He had earlier in January this year, consented to kick starting the teachers’ recruitment process at the TSC. 

“This approval is a continuation of the process to place qualified teachers in the state’s post basic education schools,” she said.
