According to the Anambra State Government press, Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo, CFR, has also given a new lease of life to education in Anambra State by presenting Letters of Appointment to this 5,000 newly recruited teachers.

Multiple reports have it that, the entire recruitment process was done through a transparent and competitive process supervised by the State Ministry of Education.

Governor Soludo today 2nd December presented the appointment letters to the recently recruited 5000 teachers in a televised grand ceremony at the International Convention Centre, Awka.

The gathered teachers and their guests were full of praise for Governor Soludo for having faith in them as a continuation of his open demonstration of transparency and credibility in all sectors of Anambra State.

It was an occasion to savor as Governor Soludo shared ennobling company with the teachers because the governor sees himself, first and foremost, as a teacher who has lectured for many years at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, and in some other universities across the world.

Many educationists lauded Governor Soludo for his landmark innovative method of recruiting teachers credibly, transparently, and competitively. Also the Anambra State Commissioner for Education, Professor (Mrs.) Ngozi Chuma-Udeh, who superintended all stages of the recruitment exercise basked in the glory of the moment, attesting to the fact that the process was quite challenging.


She was steadfast in carrying out Governor Soludo's mandate of making the exercise comprehensively transparent and credible to all parties.


It needs to be recalled that following the dearth of teachers in schools as inherited by the administration upon assumption of office, Governor Soludo took the immediate decision to approve the recruitment of 5,000 teachers to fill up those gaps and also improve the education system in the state

The competitive process of recruitment has been described by multiform observers as being the most credible and transparent in recent times. According to the records, out of the 40,120 candidates who applied, 13,500 scaled through the first Computer Based Test (CBT) which had 60 percent as the cut-off mark.

The supplementary test took the cut-off mark down to 55 percent, thereby adding additional 2000 candidates to the number scheduled for the last CBT. The last CBT was scheduled in six centers at a cut-off mark of 55 percent. The 8,120 successful candidates were scheduled for oral and written interviews.

The successful candidates were determined by adding the last CBT scores and the oral/written interview scores and dividing them by a simple average. The cut-off mark was set at 60 percent.

After the painstaking and rigorous exercise, the 5,000 teachers were selected strictly on merit. Anambra's children deserve the best, we can not give the students the type of education we can't afford to give our ''own'' children. Knowing too well that there is never a second chance in being children again, they deserve the best education and that we are providing

The presentation of the appointment letters to the recruited 5000 teachers was done on this day Friday, December 2, 2022, at the International Convention Centre, Awka

The atmosphere was the climax of a job well done by Governor Soludo who amidst laud ovation assured them that they will receive their December salaries any time from now
