No fewer than 65 primary teachers have been reportedly sacked by the Kaduna State government.
According to the Auditor of the Kaduna State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB), Tandat Katuma, who confirmed the development on Friday, the sacked persons were allegedly recruited illegally.
The state SUBEB chairman, Charles Danladi, while announcing the sack on Wednesday, had said the anomaly was detected through the over-bloated wage bill of the teachers, which kept increasing every month without new employment.
He further disclosed that 16 out of the 65 were among the primary school teachers that failed the competency test but were illegally reappointed while the remaining 51 were illegally recruited during the first and second batches of the recruitment of 25,000 qualified teachers.
The SUBEB chairman, however, said sanctions have been melted on the official involved in the illegal recruitment.
