He also approved the recruitment of 250 education officers into the state teaching.
A statement made available to newsmen by Adeleke’s spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, disclosed that the governor gave the approval after the State Executive Council meeting ratified the decision on Wednesday.
“The Council noted that the approval for the recruitment of teachers follows the conclusion of the need assessment which the Governor ordered last year.
