Oyo SUBEB Chairman Meets Education Secretaries, Hints On Redeployment Of Teachers

The Oyo State Government has urged Education Secretaries to strive to impart discipline and sound morals within their Local Government Universal Basic Education Authorities for the overall good of the State.

The Government equally stressed the importance of the State’s religious diversity and the need to tolerate one another.

The Executive Chairman, Oyo State Universal Basic Education Board, Dr. Nureni Aderemi Adeniran, who gave the advice at a meeting with Education Secretaries said their duties were not just about academics, but as vehicles for instilling moral values in their subordinates.

The Executive Chairman noted that Education Secretaries, their teaching and non-teaching staff must be disciplined, in order to be able to impart sound morals and discipline in schoolchildren.

Adeniran also said the Oyo State through the Board, will not tolerate religious intolerance.

He added that no religious bigotry will be tolerated in the State public schools.

He observed that every religion and law protects the life of every citizen, adding that no pupil must be coerced into a belief system he/she finds unpersuasive.

“It is important that each Education Secretary must be self-disciplined, otherwise they will lose the right to discipline others, as immediate role models to others”.

Dr. Adeniran, while commenting on the scarce number of teachers in public schools, hinted on a possible redistribution of teachers across the State.
