Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah has approved the recruitment of 6,580 qualified candidates into teaching, technical and administrative positions across public primary and junior secondary schools as part of efforts to strengthen the state's education sector.

The recruitment, announced by the Enugu State Universal Basic Education Board (ENSUBEB), is aimed primarily at providing manpower for the state's 267 Smart Green Schools and improving the delivery of quality basic education. According to a vacancy notice issued by ENSUBEB Executive Chairman, Associate Hyginus Okibe Banko, the exercise forms part of the governor's education reform agenda.

Interested candidates are required to submit a formal application letter, detailed curriculum vitae, copies of academic credentials, a birth certificate or sworn declaration of age, and valid contact details, either physically to the ENSUBEB office in Enugu or electronically as a single PDF attachment. The board stressed that the exercise is free of charge and warned applicants against paying anyone for employment.
