Due to the failed coup attempt in Turkey which has led to the closure of
many private universities, Nigeria Students studying across Turkish private
varsities closed down have been moved by the Turkish Government to public
Schools in that country where they will pay very little or no tuition fees at
all.
The Ambassador of Turkey to Nigeria, His Excellency Mr. Hakan Cakil revealed
this Friday, when he paid a courtesy visit on the Minister of Education, Mallam
Adamu Adamu in his office, in Abuja.
He said all students affected by the closure have been moved to public
varsities nearest to them.
Ambassador Hakan Cakil assured the Minister that no Nigerian students would
be allowed to suffer the closure, and any students electing to return to
Nigeria will be doing so as a matter of choice.
In his response Mallam Adamu expressed profound gratitude to the Turkish
Government for paying special attention to the well being and safety of
Nigerian students in Turkey.
The Minister assured Ambassador Hakan that the government of Nigeria will
continue to work hard to deepen educational cooperation with Turkey as well as
boost the overall bilateral relationship between the two countries.
