The State Commissioner for Information, Kingsley Fanwo, said the approval arrived at the weekly executive council meeting.

Fanwo stated that the domestication of the 65years retirement age has put the state teachers at par with their counterparts at the federal level.

This is at variance with the 60 years retirement age for all civil servants at all levels in the country.
