The Abia State Government, through the Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education, has released the posting letters for all successful candidates in the 2025 Teachers Recruitment Exercise. This development was announced in a press release dated July 28, 2025.
According to the Honourable Commissioner for Basic and Secondary Education, Elder Goodluck Ubochi, “Applicants are advised to report to their place of assignment on or before September 1, 2025.”
He explained that some applicants were posted outside their Local Government Areas due to limited space. “Postings outside their LGA of residence or origin were necessitated as the schools in most applicants’ LGA of residence or origin could not accommodate the number of persons resident or originating from them,” the statement noted.
Applicants who face serious challenges with their assigned locations are encouraged to take action. “Applicants who however feel that their place of posting poses severe challenges should call the Ministry’s help lines 0913444706/09135007067 or use the complaint link on their dashboard to apply for reposting consideration stating clearly the challenges the posting poses to them,” the Commissioner stated.
However, the Ministry made it clear that requesting a reposting does not guarantee approval. “It was clearly stated in the offer of appointment, that candidates are liable to posting or transferring to any part of Abia State at any time in the interest of the board for selfless commitment and dedication,” Elder Ubochi added.
