BENIN – Edo State Government has suspended the recruitment exercise
by the state Post-Primary Education Board, PPEB, following the
allegation of fraud that marred the exercise.
In a statement by Mr. Peter Okhiria, Chief Press Secretary to the
Governor, the government said: “Preliminary investigations into the
exercise revealed that it was fraught with unwholesome practices as the
exercise sacrificed merit on the altar of selfish motives.
“Consequently, in accordance with our commitment to transparency and
accountability, the exercise is suspended and the appointment letters
issued are hereby revoked. All those purportedly offered appointment
through the exercise are advised to stay away.
“Government will review the entire exercise and give room to all to
re-apply and only those who scale through the fresh test which will be
transparently conducted, will be offered appointment.”
