Kaduna State government has released samples of the answer scripts of the 25,000 teachers who sat for a competency test recently, with 75 per cent failing woefully.
The samples are shocking.
The release of the scripts followed the protests by the Nigerian Labour Congress, school pupils and the affected teachers, against the decision of the state government.
During the protests, NLC President Ayuba Wabba, on Wednesday said the test was only an excuse to relieve the teachers of their duties.
His words: “It was a smokescreen to just sack workers… “Teaching is a profession in Nigeria, we have teacher training institutions and Teachers Registration Council, why are they not the ones conducting the test?

“This is because they have sinister motives; that is why they didn’t use those institutions.
“They are doing this just to sack and reduce workers and we will not accept that,’’ the NLC president said.
However, reacting, Governor Nasir El-Rufai said the protests would not stop his government from recruiting new and qualified ones as planned.
Over 18,000 applications have so far been received.
Below are some of the samples of the scripts:
