Tambuwal gave the directives when he sworn-in twenty newly appointed Permanent Secretaries at Government House Chamber in Sokoto.
Addressing the new appointees, Governor Tambuwal instructed the Head of Service to collaborate with the state Teachers Service Board and the Ministry of Basic Each and Secondary Education on how to mainstream Teachers into the state civil service.
He said 60% of those to be employed would be teachers while the remaining 40% would be absolved into the administration pool of the civil service.
