The Federal Government says it will sack any teacher found in classrooms without the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria’s ,TRCN, certificate and licence before the end of this year.
Minister of State for Education Prof. Anthony Anwukah disclosed this at the maiden induction ceremony for teachers in Imo State University.
Anwukah, who was the chairman of the occasion, said that there would be no going back on the two-year deadline given to teachers to register with the TRCN.
He urged teachers, who were yet to register with TRCN to do so to avoid being sacked.
The Registrar/Chief Executive of the council, Prof. Josiah Ajiboye, urged teachers not to undermine professionalism, saying that the TRCN would soon reintroduce the Professional Qualifying Examination which would serve as a major prerequisite for admittance into the teaching profession.
