The Federal Government has warned that illegal higher institutions will be demolished because they pose a threat to the education system.
Government
had earlier directed higher education regulatory agencies to ‘crackdown
hard’ on unlawful universities, colleges of education and polytechnics.
Already, about 66 universities and 68 polytechnics and specialized
technical colleges were discovered to be running courses and awarding
certificates without licenses.
Minister of Education, Malam
Adamu Adamu said this at a press briefing in Abuja weekend. He said
following the directive to regulatory bodies, to shut down unlawful
higher institutions, reports indicated that “the agencies have already
gone to work and the impact is being felt across the country.”
He called on the public to expose illegal higher institutions whenever they are found, with a view to dealing with the menace.
“Where necessary we shall demolish such institutions,” he said.
