Zulum inaugurates committee on re-verification of local government ‘ghost teachers’

Borno State Governor has ordered a review of the primary school teachers’ verification exercise conducted in December 2020, which found 7,794 ghost teachers, after the Nigerian Union Teachers (NUT) complained that 624 teachers have been wrongly included in the ghost workers’ list. A Committee will review two reports submitted to the Governor on teachers’ verification and a Biometric Data Capture of local government Staff and Local Education Authorities.
