FG Sacks Togo, Benin Degree Holders From MDAs

The Federal Government has sacked some civil servants with degrees from private tertiary institutions in Benin Republic and Togo.

This was confirmed by the Director of Information and Public Relations in the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Segun Imohiosen on Wednesday.

The directive affected federal workers who graduated from the institutions from 2017 to date.

It would be recalled that the Federal Government in August, announced that only eight universities had been accredited to award degrees to Nigerians in Togo and Benin Republic.

The government also banned the accreditation and evaluation of degrees from tertiary institutions in Benin Republic and Togo, following an undercover investigation report in which a Daily Nigerian journalist acquired a degree from a university in Benin Republic in two months and used it to participate in the National Youth Service Corps scheme.
