GOV. Hyacinth Alia of Benue said on Sunday that his administration’s efforts in the education sector were already yielding positive and visible results.

Alia stated this when he received the GovTech Public Service Award, won by the State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) as the SUBEB in ICT integration.

The governor in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Sir Tersoo Kula

said that his administration introduced

several digital initiatives when he came on board.

He listed the initiatives to include the verification and implementation of a centralised and automated payroll system and a comprehensive audit of the staff of the board.

“Introduction of Computer-Based Tests (CBT) for teachers’ recruitment to ensure transparency and fairness in the process is the first of the  undertakens at the board.

“This is no doubt contributing to President Bola Tinubu’s Digital Transformation Agenda in the Public Service.

“I assure the entire people of Benue that the positive results of the reforms initiated by our administration will be felt in all the sectors of the state,” he said.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Dr. Grace Adagba, Benue SUBEB Chairman, was equally honoured with the ‘Distinguished GovTech Trailblazers Award’ for exceptionally discharging her duties as the SUBEB boss. (NAN)
