The National Teachers’ Institute (NTI), Kaduna, says students enrolled in its NCE and degree programmes will be given the opportunity to complete their respective academic programmes.

The institute made this known in a statement issued on Monday by its Head of Public Relations and Protocol, Mr Yusha’u Ahmed, following concerns arising from a recent directive concerning admissions, accreditation and university affiliation at the institute.

Ahmed said the directive was not intended to abandon students already enrolled and pursuing their academic programmes.

He said the management was committed to ensuring that students had the opportunity to complete their studies.

The statement advised students to remain calm, continue to follow official communications and maintain contact with their respective study centres.

It explained that the study centres would provide information on academic activities, accreditation exercises, examinations and other arrangements relating to the completion of their programmes.

The institute acknowledged the concerns that might arise from the recent directive and appealed to stakeholders and members of the public to avoid spreading misinformation capable of creating anxiety among students.

Ahmed reiterated the institute’s commitment to keeping stakeholders informed of developments concerning the academic programmes. (NAN)
