Breaking: New education minister reverses 18-year age limit on admission

The new Minister of Education, Dr. Tunji Alausa, has abolished the 18-year admission benchmark into tertiary institutions in Nigeria.

Alausa spoke on Tuesday in his inaugural ministerial press conference which is ongoing in Abuja.

The Minister, however, said there 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.
