Weeks after Governor Seyi Makinde said that the state government would recruit more teachers, there has been alot of questions on whether the recuittment has commenced and what process will it follow.

The Oyo State Ministry of Education in making clarification on recruitment process took to her social media handle (twitter) @oysg_edu to disregard information going about that the Ministry has commenced recruitment.

The Ministry there enjoined the people wait for the official broadcast and further instructions on how to apply.

“Hello All, kindly disregard any message about teacher’s recuittment. Kindly wait for the official broadcast and further instructions on how to apply. Be warned and guided appropriately. Best Regards.

In furtherance of the institution’s goal to internationalise its programmes and produce highly competent graduates, Nigeria’s premier Technical University, First Technical University, Ibadan (Tech-U), has signed a collaborative degree programme agreement with Girne American University (GAU) in Cyprus.

This collaboration now gives interested undergraduates the choice to spend their first three or four years in Tech-U, depending on the course of study, and thereafter proceed to Cyprus to complete their degree programmes in GAU.
There is also the “top up” agreement through which students can complete their courses at Tech-U and apply to complete their Master’s degrees in GAU.

Located in Kyrenia, Northern Cyprus, GAU is Cyprus’ top-ranked university noted for its demonstrable leadership in science, technology and innovation.

The programme is approved and coordinated by the National UniversitiesbCommission (NUC). Speaking at the signing of the collaboration, the GAU Chancellor, Dr. Serhat Akpinar, expressed delight at the partnership and pledged his unwavering commitment to the success of the programme, which would also involve partnership in research and faculty members’ exchange.

Present at the ceremony held in Girne, Cyprus, were the representatives of partner institutions and the Director of Skills Development and Entrepreneurship, NUC, Mrs. Constance Goddy-Nnadi, who also represented the commission’s executive secretary.
Mrs. Goddy-Nnadi agreed that the partnership would promote capacity-building and quality knowledge acquisition by Nigerian lecturers and students.

Tech-U’s Vice Chancellor, Prof. Ayobami Salami, said the partnership is in line with Tech-U’s vision of producing students who will not only change the diminishing job equation, but also become key players within the national and international spaces.

I had to defer my admission to next session. Before the next session came, I had the little boy and I had to Nurse him; another deferment.”After Six Months, I resumed school, I used to go to class in the morning and go back home in the afternoon for almost a year until I stopped breastfeeding my baby. I couldn’t graduate with the set I came in with, (they are through with their masters now). I couldn’t graduate with the next set but here I am today after 5 years (it was suppose to be 2 years because I did Direct Entry).”All I have to say is Alihamdulilahi. It is Allah’s wishes and it is written. I’m not good at telling stories. Please congratulate me” She wrote.It should be recalled that Queen Badirat recently celebrated her 30th birthday.
