FULL LIST: FG announces delisted universities in Nigeria

 


The Federal Government of Nigeria, via the Federal Ministry of Education, has disclosed a list of 18 foreign universities that are banned in the country.

Recall that the federal government had previously suspended the evaluation and accreditation of degree certificates from the Republic of Benin and Togo in response to a related scandal.

The Nigerian government also warned Nigerians to avoid enrolling in such institutions.

The decision was due to an undercover investigation conducted by DAILY NIGERIAN newspaper, which unravelled the activity of a degree mill in Cotonou, a major city of Benin Republic.

As per the investigation, the investigative reporter allegedly obtained a degree from Cotonou University within six weeks and subsequently took part in the mandatory one-year scheme organized by the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).
