Newly employed teachers in Kaduna fail letter writing test

- Malam Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna state reveals that some of the newly appointedteachers could not write letters of acceptance

- El-Rufai says the revelation is proof that the affected teachers were not the ones that wrote the tests themselves

- The teachers were recruited following a major sack of some of their colleagues

The governor of Kaduna, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, has made a huge revelation concerning the newly appointed teachers in the state as he stated that many of them could not write an acceptance letter after they were approved for the job.

Governor El-Rufai made the revelation in a post made on the social media account of the Kaduna state government later Thursday, March 8, 2018.

“Some of the new teachers we tried to recruit tried to game the system. We gave those that passed letters of appointments and a plain sheet of paper to write a simple letter of acceptance.

“Some couldn’t. It was clear they didn’t write the tests themselves,” he was credited as saying.

NAIJ.com earlier reported that Governor Nasir El-Rufai advocated for a very low minimum wage that would enable states to pay the salaries of their workers.

He made the suggestion on Thursday, March 8, in Abuja at a ‘Governance Matters’ roundtable organised by Development Alternative Incorporation (DAI), Vanguard reports.

El-Rufai also said that organised labour unions in the country have destroyed the nation more than they have contributed to it.

NAIJ.com also reported that the Nigerian Union of Teachers (NUT), Kaduna state chapter, at the Wednesday, February 21, plenary session of the Senate raised a petition against the state government over their unpaid salary arrears.

The petition was raised by Senator Shehu Sani representing Kaduna Central senatorial district.

Shaku Shaku: The origin and enablers of the viral street dance

Olamide Olamide took the fourth edition of his annual OLIC concert to the mainland for the first time; it’s obvious that the rap superstar has outgrown Eko Hotel’s overused Convention Center. The timely relocation granted ‘home advantage,’ of sorts, not only to the King of the Streets but also to the underground acts he customarily gives a platform to, as they performed in their natural habitat. In 2017, one of those acts was DJ Real, who’d built a solid reputation for hosting mixtapes containing the biggest street anthems, and for his work on local radio. The diminutive DJ is not to be mistaken for Mr. Real, the artist behind the street anthem “Legbegbe” (featuring Idowest, Obadice and Kelvin Chuks), who also performed at OLIC 4 and has played a significant role in the spread of a new viral dance called “shaku shaku”. Shaku shaku is a dance that’s performed by crossing your arms in front of each other at the wrist, widening your legs slightly, and launching into a graceful half-ga

What Antonio Conte said to Lionel Messi after Barcelona win, defeated boss reveals conversation

Lionel Messi helped book Barcelona’s place in the Champions League quarter-finals against Chelsea, with Antonio Conte seen in discussion with him after the game. The Argentine icon scored twice in a 3-0 win in the second leg at the Nou Camp on Wednesday night, adding to his strike at Stamford Bridge in the first leg as he was a crucial factor in the victory. Chelsea arguably played better football in the return fixture as they got themselves into plenty of threatening positions throughout the game, but couldn’t take their chances while also hitting the woodwork twice. In turn, with Barcelona not at their best, they had to rely on Messi to guide them forward, as he has done on countless occasions in the past. Much was made of the exchange between the Barcelona star and Chelsea boss Conte after the game, with BT Sport commenting on it too, as seen in the tweet below, while Gary Lineker joked in the studio that the Italian was ‘tapping him up’. Both made an attempt to cover their mo

Dino Melaye, Senator representing Kogi West. [Photo Credit: Punch Newspapers] The Court of Appeal in Abuja has ruled that the recall process of Dino Melaye, the senator representing Kogi West, be restarted. The senator had approached the appellate court in a bid to stop the process after an Abuja Federal High Court in September 2017 gave the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) the go-ahead to begin Melaye’s recall process. In the latest judgement delivered on Friday, Justice Tunde Awotoye and two other judges ruled that there was no cause for action and the Federal High Court that adjudicated the case ought not to have entertained it in the first place. The Appeal Court held that Mr. Melaye’s claim was ‘hasty, premature and presumptuous,’ Vanguard reports. The court ordered INEC to continue with the planned verification of 188,588 who reportedly signed petition for the recall. Mr. Melaye is facing a recall by his constituents who in a petition on June 23 called on I
