Graduates from blacklisted universities in Togo and Benin Republic have urged the Federal Government to reverse its decision on the invalidation of degrees obtained by Nigerians from these institutions.
They claim the ban has exposed them to ridicule and stigmatization.
At a press conference organized by the West African Francophone Universities Alumni and the National Association of Nigerian Students in Diaspora, the graduates expressed their concerns.
Peter Adamade, President of the Institut Supérieur de Formation Professionnelle, lamented that the ban had left many of them traumatized and exposed to public ridicule.

Another graduate, Emmanuel Abdulrazaq, suspected that the president had been misinformed and provoked into imposing the ban. He argued that the minister’s declaration was an attempt to tarnish the reputation of these institutions for personal gain.
Adzo Innocent, a 2019 graduate, partly blamed the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board for their plight, citing revenue generation and strike actions in Nigerian universities as factors driving students to seek education in neighboring countries.
