Atiba University law program moratorium

Overview

The Council of Legal Education (CLE) has imposed a 10-year moratorium on Atiba University in Oyo State, prohibiting the institution from offering law programs. The decision was based on findings that the university’s facilities were “inappropriate and inadequate” and that it had violated admission policies by admitting and graduating students without required regulatory approval.

In response to the ban, Atiba University Vice-Chancellor Sunday Okeniyi announced that the institution would support affected students. The university plans to assist students in securing admissions at other universities, refunding tuition fees, or providing academic transcripts to facilitate transfers.
