FG Releases Admissions into Unity Schools
The Federal Ministry of Education has announced the release of admissions into Federal Unity Colleges across Nigeria, marking a major step towards transparency, efficiency, and optimal capacity management in secondary school placements.
In a statement issued on Tuesday in Abuja, the Director of Press and Public Relations, Folasade Boriowo, explained that the initiative, driven by the Minister of Education, Dr. Maruf Tunji Alausa, ensures that all admissions are now fully automated and strictly conducted within the approved capacity of each school, thereby eliminating the challenges of overstretched facilities.
Dr. Alausa described the reform as one that “guarantees fairness, operational efficiency, and sustained quality in our Federal Unity Colleges.”
The current exercise covers 80 conventional Federal Unity Colleges (Junior Secondary School 1), while admission into the 42 Federal Technical Colleges under the TVET programme will be released subsequently.
Director of Senior Secondary Education, Hajia Binta Abdulkadri, hailed the automation as a game-changer: “The new system ensures that admission aligns with each school’s capacity, creating a better learning environment for students. This reform is expected to streamline the process, improve accountability, and uphold the highest educational standards across the country.”
Parents, guardians, and students have been advised to check admission results via the Ministry’s official website: www.education.gov.ng.
The Federal Ministry of Education reaffirmed its commitment to providing quality education within a safe, conducive learning environment for all Nigerian children.
The Federal Government’s commitment to automating admissions is not just a reform; it is a clear reminder that every Nigerian child deserves equal access to quality education. Protecting this right is key to building an inclusive, progressive, and knowledge-driven nation.
