Nigeria’s Minister of Education, Dr Tunji Alausa, has given assurances that Yaba College of Technology will be upgraded to a university.
The minister made this statement on Friday, February 14, 2025, during a stakeholders meeting with the management and students of the institution.
This declaration signals a potential transformation for the institution, which has long been recognised as one of Nigeria’s top polytechnics.
The transition, once formalised, is expected to create more academic opportunities, strengthen research initiatives, and elevate the institution’s status in higher education.
