A new window of opportunity has opened for teachers as the deadline for submission of entry for the 2018 Maltina Teacher of the Year has been extended to Friday, July 20, 2018.
Nigerian Breweries’ Corporate Affairs Adviser, Mr Kufre Ekanem explained that the extension due to pressure from teachers across the country who wanted more time to complete the process.

The applications forms, he added, should be completed and uploaded to the website or sent by email to maltinateacheroftheyear@heineken.com or post to P.M.B. 12632, Marina, Lagos.
