The Board of Directors and Academic Council of the Center for the Development of Technical, Economic and Commercial Apprenticeship (CPTEC), a degree-granting institution in the Republic of Togo, has responded to the Minister of Education, Prof. 

Tahir Mamman, which estimates that only three universities in Togo have been accredited to award degrees to Nigerien students. 

At a press conference this September 2 in Lagos, members of the board of directors and academic council of CPTEC led by its president, Professor Tunde Adeyemi, affirmed that more than 40 universities are legally accredited in the Togolese Republic and recognized as degree-granting institutions. 

Adeyemi claimed that the minister misinformed Nigerians by announcing that only three universities had been accredited to issue degrees to Nigerians in Togo and Benin Republic.

A method of the “Taliban” of higher education to discredit higher education establishments on the eve of the start of the academic year.

May the order return to the ECOWAS locomotive. 

We will come back
