By Sylvester Ugwuanyi | Daily Post Nigeria |Newly inaugurated president of Liberia, Mr. George Weah, on Monday called on the Nigerian government to provide 6000 teachers to his country as part of the Technical Assistance agreement between both countries. Weah was inaugurated into office on January 22 after defeating immediate past vice president, Joseph Boakai of the Unity Party. “Your sustained technical assistance for capacity building in these sectors is most welcome. “More specifically, under the Bilateral Teacher Exchange programme, we are seeking 6,000 plus teachers to make up for the shortage of good teachers in our educational system,” he said. “We would like to see a continuation and expansion of that programme, for both men and women,” the President said.
