FAGBEMI ADVOCATES FOR NIGERIAN LAW SCHOOL'S INCLUSION IN TETFUND. (PHOTO).


 Fagbemi Advocates for Nigerian Law School’s Inclusion in TETFUND


Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi, has called for a revision of the law establishing the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFUND) to include the Nigerian Law School as a university and eligible beneficiary of the Fund.


Fagbemi made this appeal during the inauguration of the construction of 10 staff quarters and the handover of operational vehicles to the Abuja Campus of the Nigerian Law School in Bwari on Monday. He pointed out that the law school is not currently listed as a TETFUND beneficiary, which complicates its classification as a university or higher institution.


He emphasized that the Law School holds a unique status and deserves recognition as a university that should benefit from TETFUND resources. "The time has come to amend the law to include the Nigerian Law School as an institution that can access TETFUND," Fagbemi stated.


The Minister also acknowledged the contributions of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, in the development of the Abuja Campus and urged other individuals to support the Law School’s growth. He stressed the importance of providing adequate accommodation for the school’s staff, noting that secure and comfortable living conditions are crucial for their performance and the overall success of the institution.


Wike also voiced his support for amending TETFUND to include the Nigerian Law School, describing it as a vital professional training institution that deserves special intervention funds. He assured the Law School’s management of his commitment to providing new hostels for both male and female students in the FCT’s 2025 budget, emphasizing his dedication to the development of the institution.
