70% of private school teachers in Southwest states, according to the governing body for teaching in Nigeria, the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria (TRCN), are unqualified.
The states of Lagos, Osun, Ogun, Ondo, Oyo, and Ekiti are located in Nigeria’s south-west.
Prof. Josiah Ajiboye, the registrar of the council, said that the criminals were cheaters rather than professors and added that they not only defrauded the students and learners, but the entire system.
Ajiboye disclosed, contrary to various rumors regarding the Southwest and its private school teachers, that 70% of them had been found to be unqualified when speaking on Thursday in Abuja at the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding between the Council and INSTILL Education.
