In
her welcome address, the Northern Regional Chairperson of GNT, Madam Martha Akemo
said, teachers in the region are quite aware of the looming crisis in the
education sector but measures adopted so far are not yielding the desired
results which could enhance quality teaching and learning.

hang around their absorption into the universities and other tertiary
institutions.
She
opined that stakeholders in education and teachers need to collectively assess

solution to them.
