Lagos
It
has been revealed that a whopping 50,000 people applied for 1,000
vacant teaching jobs announced by the Lagos state government.
Mr. Suru Avoseh, a member, Lagos State Civil Service Commission,
says no fewer than 50,000 applicants had applied for one thousand vacant
teaching jobs announced by the state government in 2019.
Avoseh made this known during the New Year Party organized by the Badagry Women Development Forum on Sunday in Badagry.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Lagos State
Government had on Nov. 11 announced the plans to employ one thousand
teachers into the public secondary schools across the state.
Avoseh said some of the applicants that qualified for the job had been invited for the examination.
“After the examination, those that passed and meet up with the standard will be called for oral interviews.
“At present, some of the applicants who succeeded in the
examination have started receiving text messages through their phone
numbers.
“It is certain that not everybody that applied for the job will
be employed, and not all that passed the examination will be given
employment,” the commission member said.
He said that shortly Lagos State Universal Basic Education Board
(SUBEB) and Civil Service Commission would soon start to employ people
in the state
“We will soon start employment too; every motion has been put in place and we have discussed it with the Head of Service.
“Currently, we have commenced staff auditing to know the number of vacancies to be filled up.
“It is after the auditing that the commission will be able to tell Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu the number of staff to be employed.
“So, we are making the preparation now,” Avoseh said.
He challenged women in Badagry to take over from the men in politics for the sake of development of the city.
Avoseh urged them to fight for their rightful place in politics,
adding that they had every right to contest for any political post of
their choice.
Also, Mrs Funmilola Olajide, Director, Lagos State Office of
Special Education, urged women to be best friends of their children.
Olajide said that this would make the children tell them things that happened outside their homes.
“Create time for your children so that when they are abused they will tell you.
“Stop putting them under an uncle or your nearby friend; this is dangerous because these area sisters can abuse them.
“Always make children feel at home,” she said.
