Shocking!!! Suswam pays Adult Literacy Teachers N500 Monthly by ochejoseph(m): 2:08pm On Aug 15, 2013
The shocking revelation came from no less a
person than the Benue State Governor, Mr
Gabriel Suswam, who was represented by the
Commissioner for Education Dr Elizabeth
Ugor.
Suswam said it was disheartening that the
facilitators were paid so poorly when the
minimum amount which local government
councils in Benue should pay them is N6,000.
He added that education is a collective
responsibility and charged stakeholders to
brace up for the challenges ahead.
In her welcome speech, Executive Director,
Benue State Agency for Adult and Non
Formal Education, Mrs. Becky Ortese, said
the training of 111 facilitators organised by
UNESCO and the MDGs Office has broadened
their knowledge so that they can impact
positively.
She commended Suswam and the
Commissioner for the support to the agency
but called for more assistance in the areas of
logistics, employment of new facilitators and
funds to fulfil its mandate to the illiterates in
Benue state.
The Executive Secretary, National
Commission for Mass Education, Alahji Jibrin
Paiko , said they are over 40 million illiterates
in Nigeria.
