From Enugu State, CEOAFRICA.com gathered that a total of 138 school principals have been relieved of their job by the state government for allegedly falsifying their ages.

It was revealed that some of the principals have spent about five years and above after attaining their official retirement age due to falsification of records.

The state Post Primary School Management Board, PPSMB, disclosed that those elevated to chief supervising principals by the PPSMB on the directive of the state Ministry of Education, were so reluctant to accept their post because of huge cash they were intending to rake in from student’s admission. However, when the PPSMB insisted that they comply with their new assignment and update their records, it was discovered that majority of them falsified their age.

Sources said that more of the identified culprits would be sent packing as the 138 CSPs published are in the first batch.
