Ondo State Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa has approved the employment of 1,010 new teachers for secondary schools in the state.
This is contained in a statement made available to newsmen by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Ebenezer Adeniyan, on Monday, March 3, 2025.
Adeniyan said the approval came after the completion of the recruitment process by the Teaching Service Commission (TESCOM), which screened thousands of applicants last year.
Aiyedatiwa had approved the recruitment of 1,000 secondary school and 1000 primary school teachers since 2024.
Adeniyan, however, said the list of successful candidates would be made available online on Monday and also displayed at TESCOM headquarters and zonal offices across Ondo State from Tuesday.

He stated: “The successful candidates are to begin their documentation immediately.
“The final list for the secondary school candidates was approved by the governor on Friday, while that of the primary school candidates is undergoing its finishing touches.”
The CPS noted that Aiyedatiwa had expressed concern over the shortage of teachers in public schools, particularly in rural areas.
Adeniyan added that the recruitment of teachers in both primary and secondary schools was one of the efforts of the current administration in revamping the education sector in Ondo State.
