Meanwhile, the Chairman of the State Universal Basic Education Board (TSUBEB), Dr Yakubu Agbaizo, said that the reason for the poor welfare of teachers in the state occasioned by non-payment of teachers’ salaries was due to the falling price of oil which was the mainstay of Nigerian economy.
The TSUBEB boss made this disclosure to newsmen after his screening today (yesterday), at the House of Assembly complex.
He acknowledged the fact that primary school education is a priority to the present rescue mission of Governor Darius Ishaku and so is the welfare of primary school teachers an utmost priority.

Taraba Begins ₦5,000 Deduction for Teachers’ Permanent Identity Cards

The Taraba State Universal Basic Education Board (TSUBEB) has initiated a ₦5,000 deduction from teachers as part of arrangements for the production of Permanent Identity Cards for teachers across the state. According to UBEC, the identity cards are expected to strengthen staff records, improve security and enhance administrative efficiency in the management of teachers across Taraba State. UBEC further said the Permanent Identity Card project is also expected to assist the state government in developing an accurate and verifiable database of teachers. Such a database will provide Governor Agbu Kefas with reliable information on personnel within the basic education system and support more effective planning, monitoring and personnel management. The initiative is therefore expected to strengthen security measures, improve staff verification and provide a more efficient system for managing personnel across Taraba State’s basic education sector.
