The Honourable Minister of Education, Dr. Maruf Tunji Alausa, has directed all Federal Tertiary institutions that have been granted waivers to recruit staff to publicly advertise the available vacancies in at least one national daily newspaper, on their respective websites, and in other relevant academic and professional journals.
This was made known in statement by the Director of Press and Public Relations, Boriowo Folashade, stating that this directive aims to ensure a transparent, open, and competitive recruitment process that offers equal opportunity to all eligible Nigerians.
It’s stated that this follows the waivers granted to Federal Tertiary Institutions based on submissions made by these institutions concerning their manpower requirements, in line with the Ministry’s commitment to enhancing the capacity of our higher education institutions.
