University of Benin Resumes Staff Recruitment After Decade-Long Pause
What happened
Edoba Omoregie, Vice Chancellor of the University of Benin, announced that his administration has restored recruitment at the institution after a 10-year hiatus. The university expects to employ about 500 people this year, similar to the number hired last year. Omoregie stated that the institution previously suffered a significant drop in employee strength, from roughly 8,000 to 5,000 when he took office.

Why it matters
The resumption of hiring reverses a decade of staff attrition and cost reduction at the University of Benin. Omoregie explained that previous administrations had struggled to fill vacancies because they believed there was a government embargo on employment, which prevented the replacement of staff who retired or resigned.
