The Oyo State Universal Basic Education Board has rescheduled the interview timetable for successful applicants of the recent teachers’ recruitment examination from August 20 to August 26.
The Executive Chairman of OYOSUBEB, Dr Nureni Adeniran, disclosed this while speaking with newsmen in Ibadan on Tuesday.
Adeniran said the date adjustment became necessary because the state government had declared August 20 as a public holiday to celebrate the Isese Day.
“The Isese Day has been set aside in Oyo State to celebrate the indigenous Yoruba culture and traditions as well as the preservation of the Yoruba heritage.
