Speaking during the August edition of his monthly media chat with journalists in Umuahia on Friday, August 15, 2025, Otti revealed that while the teachers have already been posted to various schools, the State Universal Basic Education Board (ASUBEB) and the Ministry of Education have reviewed some postings to enhance efficiency.

The governor said he had received reports that some teachers were posted to distant locations where relocation might be difficult, affecting their performance.

“I’ve always been a firm believer that posting should not be treated as a punitive measure. If someone lives in Ukwa and you post them to Arochukwu, relocation may be difficult, and that would affect their output,” Otti stated.

“We want our teachers to be in their comfort zones so they can deliver their best. If any of the newly hired teachers feel their posting is unsuitable, they should return to us for adjustments.”

Otti further confirmed that all the newly employed teachers have been added to the state payroll from this month, stressing that his administration is focused on creating a conducive environment for educators to thrive while strengthening the state’s education system.
