He said the State Government had recruited the first batch of 1000 teachers with the determination to post them to schools and towns where their services are basically needed.

The Commissioner stressed that the posting of the new teachers rests solely with the state Ministry of Education and the State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) ,saddled with the official responsibility of knowing where the teachers are needed.

Hon. Oladoyin then warned any teacher or official of government who is still in the act of collecting money before rendering one service or the other to desist from it or be ready to face the full wrath of the law.
