The Executive Chairman, Anambra State Universal Basic Education, ASUBEB, Dr Vera Nwadinobi says the ongoing Computer-Based -Test, CBT, Recruitment examination is all geared towards achieving the Smart-School initiative of Governor Chukwuma Soludo.
She stated this while fielding questions from journalists at the venue of the ongoing CBT recruitment examination in Awka.
She explained that the CBT examination is not only testing the ability of the applicants as teachers but also testing their digital capacities, adding that any applicant who do not know how to operate the computer will definitely fail.
Dr Nwadinobi also disclosed that Governor Soludo wants to use the recruitment exercise to solve the problem of lack of teachers in hard -to- reach- areas of Anambra State like Ayamelum, Anambra West, East, Ihiala, among others as the Governor wants to ensure that children there have enough teachers in their schools and that every child in the state receives quality education from quality teachers.
The ASUBEB Chairman made it clear that the government wants the best and the recruitment must be on merit, advising applicants to beware of scammers who are asking them for money to be recruited, stressing that the recruitment is free of charge.
One of the Technicians of the CBT Recruitment Examination, Mr Paul Obi advised the applicants to ensure that their examination numbers tally with the ones on the system at the verification point before going into the examination hall.
For some of the applicants who spoke with the ABS, including Ifeyinwa Azuka who studied Computer Biology and Herbert Olekwa, who studied Mathematics, said they were well prepared for the exams, prayed and expecting to be among those that will be employed even as they commended the government and ASUBEB for conducting a well organized recruitment exercise.
The ASUBEB Chairman later went round the examination hall for on the spot-assessment of the entire exercise.
