The Oyo State Government has announced plans to upload 5,600 newly recruited teachers into its database, with deployment to public basic schools set to follow.

The Executive Chairman of the Oyo State Universal Basic Education Board, Nureni Adeniran, disclosed this on Tuesday in a statement signed by the Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Dotun Oyelade, in Ibadan.

Adeniran revealed that the verification exercise for the successful candidates would run from Thursday, December 5, 2024, to Monday, December 16, 2024, at the board’s headquarters in Agodi, Ibadan.

“The verification session will take eight working days and will be witnessed by relevant stakeholders,” he said.

He added that the exercise was part of Governor Seyi Makinde’s commitment to enhancing the welfare of teachers in the state.

The chairman urged the candidates to arrive with the necessary documents

The verification process begins daily at 9 a.m., Adeniran said.

He noted that the 5,600 candidates were part of the first batch of successful applicants approved by the governor, emphasising the administration’s dedication to addressing the state’s educational needs.

It would be recalled that OYOSUBEB recently released the list of successful candidates from its recruitment exercise, signaling a significant boost to Oyo State’s basic education workforce.
