The governor of Bauchi State, Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, has given his approval for the hiring of 1,684 secondary school teachers, extension personnel, and Aminu Saleh College of Education, Azare, staff members.
Alhaji Yahuza Adamu Haruna, the state’s chief civil servant, said this on Tuesday.
A total of 1,000 teachers for English language, mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics, and ICT were approved to be hired out of the 1,684 who were eligible for employment.
According to Haruna, the approval came after Governor Mohammed lifted the ban on hiring into the state civil service in his inaugural speech on May 29.
Alhaji Adamu also disclosed that 150 staff are to be employed for the Aminu Saleh College of Education, Azare, while 206 extension workers and farm managers are to be employed in the state Ministry of Agriculture in fulfillment of the Governor’s promise during the launch of the 2023 farming season and sales of fertilizer in Azare.
