NTI Managers Urge Tinubu and Education Minister to Review Admission Cancellation

The National Teachers’ Institute (NTI) Centre Managers’ Forum urged President Bola Tinubu and Education Minister Dr Tunji Alausa to review the cancellation of the institute’s programmes and 2026 admissions, warning that more than 21,000 students’ academic futures could be jeopardised. On November 7, the ministry cancelled admissions to NTI’s NCE and degree programmes over alleged regulatory breaches and ordered the institute to end university affiliations and degree-awarding arrangements. The forum said many students had already attended classes and sat their first-semester examinations in August, and called on the government to let them complete their studies while reforms are undertaken.
