Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, has felicitated teachers and their unions across the state for their selfless services.
The governor, who spoke on Thursday during the 2023 Teachers’ Day celebration held at the Obas Complex in Abeokuta, the state capital, assured that his government would do all it can to improve the welfare of teachers and bridge the teacher-student ratio in the state.
This is as he confirmed that his administration has employed 1,000 teachers for public schools as part of moves to enhance teaching and learning in Ogun State.
While giving assurances of more reforms in the education sector, he said: “We also approved the full employment of 1000 exceptional Ogun Teach members, who have distinguished themselves during their two-year probation period.
“We would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation to the leadership and members of NUT, ASUSS, and AOPSHON for their selfless service.”
Abiodun noted that the state would engage “An additional 2,000 interns. This is in addition to the 2,000 interns already employed in our desire to improve the teacher-student ratio, and in fulfilment of our promise to the hardworking and devoted members of Ogun Teach”.
Governor Abiodun says his government is committed to the welfare of teachers.
He told the gathering: “We want to assure all the nation builders that we will remain committed to improving the welfare and wellbeing of our teachers.
“In turn, we expect their total contribution towards the growth of the education sector, as it is through our collective efforts that we can build a promising future.”
Governor Abiodun commended teachers for their role in shaping society, saying: “The future of our children relies solely on the level and quality of education they receive, making it imperative for us to work diligently in transforming our education sector and ensuring academic excellence.”
