500,000 TEACHERS RECRUITMENT PORTAL CRASHES ON FIRST DAY.

The online portal which was created for people for the 500,000
recruitment exercise crashed on its first day. Probably due to the
massive number of applicants who accessed the website at the same
time.
Sometime in the evening on sunday, the website started displaying
an error message to visitors showing it had come down.
It displayed the message:"An error occurred. Sorry the age you are
looking for is current unavailable. If you are the owner of this
resource, please check the log for details."
The special assistant to the Minister of education said it was
too early to now the number of applicants, as the website had just
opened. The president Gen Muhammadu Buhari announced that the
recruitment programme will begin on june 12.
The programme is termed "N-power Teach". Its a programme that will
recruit about 500,000 unemployed graduates as teachers over a period
of two years. The portal website is portal.npwer.gov.ng
