Recently, the Kaduna State Universal Basic Education Board (KADSUBEB), said it was set to dismiss 233 primary school teachers for presenting fake

certificates. A verification committee launched in April 2021 uncovered the scandal. KADSUBEB Chairman, Tijjani Abdullahi said the Board screened 451 certificates presented by the teachers out of which 233, representing 51 per cent, turned out to be fake. He also noted that one institution disowned 212 of these 233 fake certificates.

Indeed, a teacher who secured employment with a fake certificate will definitely see nothing wrong in issuing a fake certificate and then the cycle of fake certificated people continues while the nation suffers. Nothing fuels this criminality like the penchant to cut corners and the simmering corruption which exists, on a large scale, in the nation’s educational institutions. Unfortunately, these crimes are perpetrated with the connivance of some unscrupulous staffers of these institutions.

It is a given that recruitment at the level of SUBEB, most often than not, is hijacked by local politicians who, in a desperate bid to reward their loyalists, even encourage them to get certificates from wherever available. Otherwise, how did these teachers get into the system? Was there no screening at the point of recruitment?

We recall that sometimes in 2019, the scheme deregistered 100 corps members deployed to Kano State for allegedly presenting fake certificates. Incidences of fake certificates are even rampant in the civil service where there are also widespread cases of fake employees. Perhaps, the time is ripe for a holistic screening of certificates at both the public and private sector to ascertain the genuineness of credentials paraded by workers.
