The Kano state government has shut down 26 private colleges of health technology operating “illegally” in different parts of the state.

The recent proliferation of the schools, according to the state, is detrimental to public health, educational development and efficiency of the entire health system.

Kano State Ministry of Health announced the closure in a statement signed by the state’s Ministry of Health Public Relations Officer, Hadiza Namadi, and made available to newsmen on Friday.

The statement reads in part, “The Ministry has noticed with serious concern, the incessant proliferation of illegal Private Heath Training Institutions (PHTIs) in the State without recourse to extant regulations governing the establishment and operation of such schools as specified by regulatory bodies and other relevant authorities.

“It is of serious dismay to realize that some of those un-recognized institutions lack definite sites and offer dubious programmes against the established course curricula, while also extorting exorbitant fees on students and their parents.

“Consequently, the general public are hereby informed of the instant shut-down of all illegal Health Training Institutions (HTIs) in the State, pending the outcome of necessary investigations.”
