50% Of Kaduna Teachers Are Unqualified – Yakowa by emmatony: 5:30am On Nov 13, 2012

KADUNA — Governor Patrick Yakowa of Kaduna State, yesterday, said about 50 percent of primary school teachers in the state were unqualified, adding that 2,000 of the teachers secured employment with forged certificates.

Yakowa spoke during the graduation and awards ceremony of the second joint National Teachers’ Institute, NTI, in Kaduna, yesterday.

He said: “The theme of the two-day summit, Enhancing Teacher Education: Quality and Professional Development, by NTI is not only timely but instructive, since it falls alongside the same aggressive effort we are currently making in Kaduna State in improving the quality of our teachers.

“Because we are convinced that the teacher is the key factor in any learning situation, we, therefore, associate ourselves with any effort to develop teacher’s quality.

He added that this was what guided the state government to evaluate primary school teachers and discovered that “nearly 50 percent” of them “lack the required qualifications to teach” even as “about 2,000 teachers had been employed with fake certificates.”

The governor further said the government also developed a blue-print aimed at addressing teacher- quality through capacity building, infrastructural development, increasing access and provision of facilities, new quality assurance system and the development of tertiary institutions owned by the state government.

According to him, the development of the roadmap had “paved the way for us to revamp the sector and improve the system beyond what was on ground.”

He said: “Funds have been injected into the sector for various projects, which include expansion and rehabilitation of government schools and libraries in the three senatorial zones, building of classrooms, supply of science equipment and furniture for use by public schools.”

So you are planning to sack them? How do politicians arrive at their percentage figures self? 50%, 95%, 80%, as if they are talking to illiterates.

To arrive at such statistics will require analysis. What the governor wants to do about it is up to him.

a frigging educated illiterate. Typical of most southerners. Kaduna is not even a hausa dominated state..and I bet is much better than all the dirty, ugly looking SW states filled with your likes (ie educated illiterates and certificate forgers) except lagos (a shit hole too, imo). Your SW states are the shit holes of the nation..

Not only kaduna, its all over the north. My friends that served in schools in northern states complain about the teachers there. Most of them cannot even speak english, they communicate in hausa/fulani/kanuri with the students. When I visited my sister in the school she was posted in kano, even the assembly was conducted in hausa! A whole government college for that matter. Not that I agree with those stats, but I believe that most of their teachers are nothing but a bunch of illitereates or semi/literates. Something has to be done about this asap.

I have walked from one thread after another on this forum. Do any of you believe teachers are better in other countries than those in Africa?

Have you never wondered; “Why for hundreds of years peoples from other lands have taken away the wealth of Africa?”
All of you are waiting for others to come, and make Africa a Golden Country. Your leaders are no better than the people they say they serve.

I Know what you do not have, and why you can not get it. You do not need to learn all the things in school you believe you must learn to become educated…you need only learn one thing in school. If you do not learn this one thing, you will stay as you are.

Is there one person in Africa who can tell me what that one thing is?
Come…spit it out…what is the one thing you need to learn that will make Africa a Golden Nation?
