Niger State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) has announced the opening of its portal for qualified applicants to apply as teaching staff of the board.
In a statement issued and made available to journalists by its Public Relations Officer, Idris Kolo, on Tuesday in Minna, the board directed the prospective applicants to use the link nigersubeb.ni.gov.ng/wp/register to submit their applications beginning from Tuesday, March 2, to Tuesday, March 30, 2021.
The board noted that applicants must ensure they have valid email address for correspondence purposes.
Applicants were, however, advised to register only once as multiple registrations will lead to disqualification.
Niger State Universal Basic Education Board (NSUBEB) accessed $6m (over N1.9b) from the World Bank, for the implementation of Better Education Service Delivery for All (BESDA), a programme of the Federal Ministry of Education.
Minister of State for Education, Chukwuemeka Nwajibu disclosed this at the official flag-off of BESDA in the state, held at the Justice Idris Legbo Kutigi International Conference Centre, Minna.
Nwajibu said Niger State was among the 17 states chosen across the country with a high number of out-of-school children.
According to him, 92, 589 children out of the estimated 292, 700 out-of-school children have been successfully enrolled into the programme, adding that the overall out-of-school children in the country has further dropped noticeably with the enrollment of 1, 053, 422 children.
