Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom Sacks State universal basic education board chairman over alleged fraud.
Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, on Tuesday, ordered the State Universal Basic Education Board Chairman, Rev. Emmanuel Aper, to immediately resign his appointment for his inability to manage the board.
A public announcement on Radio Benue said Ortom sacked the SUBEB chairman for alleged financial misappropriation.
A Government House source hinted that Aper was sacked because the wage bill of the teachers in the state did not change despite cases of deaths and retirement of teachers.
