FG orders tertiary institutions to advertise job vacancies
By Funmilayo Adeyemi
The Minister of Education, Dr Tunji Alausa, has directed all federal tertiary institutions that have been granted waivers to recruit staff to publicly advertise the available vacancies.
The ministry’s Director of Press, Folasade Boriowo, made this known to newsmen in Abuja on Thursday.
Alausa urged the institutions to advertise in at least one national daily newspaper, on their respective websites, and in other relevant academic and professional journals.
According to him, this directive aims to ensure a transparent, open, and competitive recruitment process that offers equal opportunity to all eligible Nigerians.
“This follows the waivers granted to federal tertiary institutions based on submissions made by these institutions concerning their manpower requirements.
“It is in line with the ministry’s commitment to enhancing the capacity of our higher education institutions,” he said.
He reminded all federal tertiary institutions to submit their recruitment needs to the ministry for review by the Committee on Waiver and Recruitment.
“The ministry has put in place adequate mechanisms to ensure compliance and will not hesitate to apply sanctions against any institution that fails to adhere to this directive.
“The Federal Ministry of Education remains firmly dedicated to promoting integrity and fairness in all matters related to the Nigerian higher education system,” he said. (NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
