1,755 teachers, others begin promotion exam.
Not less than 1, 755 teaching and non-teaching staff, across the 16 local government areas of Kwara, on Saturday converged on Ilorin to sit for the 2013 promotion examination.
Alhaji Umar Aboki, the Executive Chairman, Kwara State Teaching Service Commission, told newsmen that the promotion examination was to ensure that the teachers were able to impart quality knowledge on their students.
He said that the conduct of promotion examinations was a constitutional provision.
“This is a democratic government where every segment of the society should benefit from the dividends of democracy.
“Through promotion, civil servants would benefit from the dividends of democracy,” he said.
Aboki said that those teachers, who missed the 2012 promotion examination, also participated in the current exercise.
He said that the teaching service commission had appointed officials from various fields to monitor the conduct of the examination.
Aboki urged the teachers to “play the game according to the rules’’ by shunning malpractices which were capable of tarnishing their image.
Hajiya Funmilayo Oniwa, a member of the teaching service commission, said that the examination witnessed a large turnout of teachers.
She said that interviews would later be conducted for them at designated centres between Dec. 17 and Dec. 18.
