All roads will lead to the Muson Centre, Marina, Lagos, on Thursday, October 11, 2018 (today) for the grand finale of the 2018 Maltina Teacher of the Year.
The event, to be attended by high-profile guests, will see the unveiling of the 2018 Maltina Teacher of the Year.
One major focus for today’s ceremony will be who becomes the best teacher of the year in Nigeria?
Whoever emerges the winner today will smile home with N1 million, a trophy and another N1 million every year for the next five years, while a block of classrooms would be built at the school where he or she teaches.
The first runner-up will receive N1 million and a trophy, while the second runner-up will have N750,000 and a trophy. In addition, each state champion, including the winner and the first and the second runners-up, will get N500,000.
Since inception, the Maltina Teacher of the Year has produced three grand winners: Rose Nkemdilim Obi from Anambra State (2015), Imoh Essien from Akwa Ibom State (2016) and Felix Ariguzo from Delta State (2017).
The Maltina Teacher of the Year is an initiative of the Nigerian Breweries/Felix Ohiwerei Education Trust Fund. It was conceived to identify, showcase and reward outstanding teachers in Nigeria.
