Commissioner for Education , Dr. Gentle E. Emelah regarding the suspension of the ongoing teachers&#8217; recruitment exercise.<\/p>\n<p>High Chief Millionaire Asangba said he wish to state categorically that this is a dent on the integrity of the Board and that the implications of this announcement is misleading.<br \/>\nThe Executive Chairman and the Board therefore responds accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>He said&#8221; the recruitment process has been carried out with the utmost transparency, rigorously following established protocols. All stages, from application to interview, have been documented and communicated clearly to ensure that candidates and stakeholders are informed. By claiming that there are &#8220;various controversies,&#8221; the announcement casts unwarranted doubt on a process that has been managed with integrity&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>He said &#8221; announcement such as this is misinforming as the process is fully completed. There are just pockets of name corrections which are being attended to, Submission of filled Assumption of duty letters, collection of a few yet to be picked up appointment letters and the processing of names to be sent to Due process for data capturing.<br \/>\nUninvestigated actions such as this announcement is not only counterproductive but also damaging to the morale of the newly recruited teachers which can lead to severe implications for the candidates who have invested time and resources in this process as most of the recruited teachers are already functioning in their places of assignment since September 1st , 2024. Also, many applicants may have made life choices based on the expectation of employment, and this action by the Hon. Commissioner can lead to financial and emotional distress not just to the newly recruited teachers and the already completed recruitment process but also to the broader educational framework in Bayelsa State&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He said the board called upon all recently recruited teachers and the people of Bayelsa State to remain calm and confident in the completed recruitment process , that the integrity of our educational institutions depends on our ability to maintain focus on our objectives.<\/p>\n<p>He averred that &#8221; despite the challenges posed by this announcement, the Board reaffirms its commitment to a recruitment process that reflects the highest standards of professionalism. We encourage all stakeholders to engage constructively and focus on the shared goal of enhancing education in our state&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In summary , the suspension of an already concluded teachers&#8217; recruitment exercise as announced by the Hon. Commissioner for Education is misleading of the actual fact on ground even as his concerns for the application of global best practices for the process is appreciated.It is hoped that by this write up , the actual situation is clear&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Post Primary Schools Board urges all the newly recruited teachers to remain at their duty posts carrying out their jobs effectively and diligently while those that are yet to report should please do so immediately. The Board therefore reaffirms it&#8217;s dedication to serving the state and the public in line with global standards . We urge the public to support the Board and together, we can ensure a brighter future for education in Bayelsa State&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PPSB Boss Debunks Recruitment Exercise Claims By Education Commissioner &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;Says it followed Due Process By David Owei,Yenagoa .
