TheKano State Governmenthas taken decisive action against three principals of public secondary schools in the state due to dereliction of duty.
The suspension was ordered by the state Director of Public Enlightenment, Ministry of Education, Ameen Yassar, as confirmed in a statement released on Friday.
The affected schools are Government Girls Secondary School Dawanau, Government Girls Secondary School Kwa, and Government Arabic Secondary School Dawanau, all situated in the Dawakin Tofa Local Government Area of the state.
According to Yassar, the state Commissioner for Education, Umar Doguwa, announced the suspension shortly after visiting the schools between 9am and 10am on Friday and discovered that the affected principals had yet to report to their duty posts.
“From the checks he conducted, all of the three officers have routinely absconded from work on Fridays for quite some time.
“This administration will not condone truancy, lateness or any form of official misconduct, therefore, these principals are suspended forthwith�?, he said.
Yassar also said the commissioner further directed that new and competent principals be posted to the three schools immediately to ensure that academic activities were not disrupted.
He added that Doguwa also directed that four teachers at the GGSS Kwa and two at the GASS Dawanau be queried for truancy.
“The action of these principals and teachers depicts unseriousness. We are a serious government and we will not allow uncommitted people to ruin our education plans,�? he warned.
Meanwhile, the commissioner had directed that the Principal of the G.G.S.S. Harbau, in the Tsanyawa Local Government Area, be rewarded for her diligence.
