Adamawa State Government has warned the 2,000 employed graduate teachers against dereliction of duty.
The Executive Secretary, Post-Primary School Management Board (PPSMB), Hajiya Maryam Abubakar, gave the warning in a chat with reporters in Yola, yesterday.
She said all the teachers employed were posted to various secondary schools across the 21 local government areas of the state.
“We have already put measures in place to ensure that the teachers remain in schools where they were posted to work.
“But we don’t want them to know these measures now,” she said.
She said biometric data capturing was also ongoing in the state Ministry of Finance.
“The government has employed about 2,000 graduates. We have successfully completed everything with regard to employment.
“We have posted them to senior secondary schools across the 21 local government areas and currently we are in the Ministry of Finance for biometric data capturing,” she said.
She advised the new teachers to discharge their duties accordingly and shun negative behaviours against their students.
Abubakar called on the school headteachers to give the teachers appropriate subjects to teach and guide them to do the right things for better results, as well as to have a good relationship with them.
“You should orientate them on the things they are supposed to know, being the new teachers and have a good working relationship with them,” she said.
She further said that the government would also employ more teachers for the primary schools to sustain education in the state.
