In Kogi State, the government has approved 65 years as the new retirement age for teachers in public primary and secondary schools in the state.
The Kogi State Information Commissioner, Kingsley Fanwo, said the approval arrived at the weekly executive council meeting.
This is at variance with the 60 years retirement age for all civil servants at all levels in the country.
The commissioner explained that the domestication of the 65years retirement age has put the state teachers at par with their counterparts at the federal level.
He further noted that the development will enable students to draw from the wealth of experience and expertise of teachers to better their academic pursuits.
