Press Release
EDUCATION MINISTRY NOT RECRUITING
Education Minister, Adamu Adamu has said that the Federal Ministry of Education is not recruiting personnel into the Ministry.
The Minister stated this today in Abuja while briefing some education correspondents in his office.
Reacting to media reports that the Ministry was employing graduate teachers into its schools, the Minister said, by law, the Ministry cannot and does not employ any officer above grade level six (GL.06), adding that it is the exclusive preserve of the Federal Civil Service Commission (FCSC) to do so.
For the avoidance of doubt “the last time the Federal Civil Service Commission recruited teachers for the Nations Unity Schools was in 2018” the Minister said.
Explaining the rationale for the briefing, Adamu Adamu said some fraudsters have opened websites advertising for recruitment into the Ministry, adding that it is a complete scam, and that members of the public should avoid being victims.
Whenever recruitment is to be done into the Ministry, the Federal Civil Service Commission will advertise through its mechanism, following all due processes before posting successful officers to the Ministry, Adamu Adamu reiterated.
