On Tuesday, the Federal Ministry of Education declared that the Republic of Benin and Togo’s degree credentials would no longer be evaluated or accredited in Nigeria.
Recall that the Ministry made its decision in response to an undercover investigation by a Nigerian publication that revealed the operations of a degree mill in Cotonou, the capital of the Benin Republic.
The ministry also warned Nigerians against enrolling in such institutions as their credentials will not be recognized.
Below is a list of institutions that have been blacklisted following the latest directive by the Nigerian government.
