The Federal Government has uncovered and sealed 22 illegal Colleges of Education operating across the country as part of ongoing efforts to sanitise the educational sector.
This was disclosed in the National Commission for Colleges of Education’s(NCCE) recent report of achievements.
The NCCE stated that the discovery was made during a nationwide crackdown on unapproved institutions offering education programmes without government accreditation.
“The NCCE identified and shut down 22 illegal Colleges of Education operating across the country.
“The NCCE also conducted personnel audit and financial monitoring in all the 21 federal colleges of education,” the Commission said.
The move comes weeks after President Bola Tinubu ordered federal education agencies to intensify efforts to eliminate illegal higher institutions across the country.
