Results of the recently conducted Computer Based Test (CBT) exercise for candidates who applied for the post of Education Officer (2) have been released by Oyo State Civil Service Commission.
The Chairman, Oyo State Civil Service Commission, Alhaji Kamoru Abiodun Aderibigbe, stated this on Monday, April 19, 2021, while giving updates on the recently conducted exercise, held between Tuesday, April 6, to Thursday, April 9, at Chief Bayo Akande Hall, University of Ibadan, Ajibode, Ibadan, according to a statement by the state Commissioner for Information, Culture and Tourism, Dr Wasiu Olatunbosun.
Alhaji Aderibigbe said that applicants who sat for the examination are expected to visit the Oyo State Government Portal jobportal, oyostategov.ng.sc, for their results.
Earlier in July, 2020, the Commission had placed an advertorial through the CSC Portal, asking applicants to download CBT access form that would allow them participate in the text.
According to Alhaji Aderibigbe, over 14,000 applications were received, with the applicants including holders of Higher National Deploma (HND), National Certificate in Education (NCE) , and those with single honours from universities and education-based disciplines.
The chairman stated further that 3,251 candidates were shortlisted through the Management Information Centre (MIC) portal.
“Let the information get to the applicants, friends and relatives that the result is out; they should check the portal to see their scores and print same for further actions.
“We are assuring all that the present administration in the State is not going to sacrifice quality at the doorstep of politics, especially as this exercise is about the growth of education in Oyo State.”
The number of shortlisted applicants, according to him, were increased manually to 3,251, as some candidates that could not access the portal before the text were admitted manually at the examination centre.
He added that the selected applicants were considered, according to the scheme of service, to fill the vacancies for the 16 Government Science Schools and the State Technical Colleges in the State.
Praising the conduct of the applicants during the Computer Based Test exercise, Aderibigbe said that the cut-off marks for each subject/specialisation would be released on the same portal by April 26.
He reiterated government’s commitment to selecting the best applicants, in order to promote quality in the state’s teaching service.
