Speaker Kogi state House of Assembly Aliyu Umar Yusuf says the house will investigate the recent recruitment exercise carried out by the Kogi State Science, Technical Education and Teaching Service Commission (STETSCOM).
The speaker disclosed this when the Executive Chairman of the Commission, Cicilia Cook led other management staff to defend the commission’s twenty twenty four budget estimate at the assembly complex in Lokoja.
According to him, the need to look into the recruitment and posting of the one thousand one hundred teachers is to check procedures and criteria used to grade them.
