The new Minister of Education, Tunji Alausa has announced the abolishment of the 18-year admission benchmark into tertiary institutions in the country.
This comes as he hinted on the possibility of his administration reviewing the nation’s education policy.
The Minister added that there would be no reversal on the federal government’s decision to void over 22,700 degree certificates obtained by Nigerians in some “fake” universities in neighbouring Togo and Benin Republic.
Alausa spoke on Wednesday in his inaugural ministerial press conference which is ongoing in Abuja.
