The Anambra State Commissioner for Education, Prof Ngozi Chuma-Udeh, has allegedly been caught on tape insulting a job applicant in the state.
The commissioner insulted the applicant who called in to seek clarifications regarding the teacher’s recruitment exercise held in the state last Saturday.
In a voice note which has gone rival, the commissioner lashed out at the applicant and her colleagues for what she described as unruly behaviour during the recruitment exercise.
Chuma-Udeh described the female applicant as a hooligan and idiot who should not dream of becoming a teacher or working in the education sector.
In her words, “Madam, you’re an idiot. You mean the computers are doing what? I received a report by 12 noon that you people refused to stand in line, you refused to be identified; you mobbed.
“You people were trying to get into the hall at the same time; you refused to be disciplined, and you have the effrontery… You stupid woman to call me on the phone and talk rubbish.
“Get out of my phone you filthy thing. Do you really want to be a teacher? How will you tell your students to conform to instructions, when you cannot stand in line and move line in line, and you want to be a teacher when you are behaving like hooligans.
“I have nothing for you and I have nothing to say to you. We have already examined up to 1,400 candidates and …you are all hooligans. I hope you understand me. Thank you.”
