Oyo gives appointment letters to 5,000 newly recruited teachers

Oyo State government has commenced the distribution of 5,000 employment letters to the newly-recruited teachers under the State’s Teaching Service Commission (TESCOM).

The exercise was done after a long period of scrutiny and verification to correct all errors that might have been noticed during and after the conduct of examination and oral test for the exercise.

According to the chairman of Oyo State Teaching Service commission (TESCOM), Pastor Akinade Alamu, the government approved 5000 appointment letters for distribution and 4400 letters have been released by TESCOM while the remaining were withheld due to certain errors on the part of the applicants.

He said the errors included misspelling of  names as well as invalid email addresses  among others, assuring those yet to receive theirs that the letters would be released immediately after the correction of errors by the applicants.
