Abdulmumini said that the board had concluded arrangement to recruit 500 additional teachers to teach in primary schools in rural areas.

“We will procure teaching and learning materials for the schools," he said.

The SUBEB secretary said that the delay in the payment of teachers’ salaries was not deliberate, adding that it was due to the ongoing verification of teachers in the state.

He urged teachers to be patient, saying, “we hold the welfare of our teachers in high-esteem; we will wipe out their tears soon.”
