The Federal Government has vowed to flush out persons in both public and private institutions working with fake certificate.
The minister of education, Tahir Mamman, made this known on Friday, May 3, in Abuja while receiving the report of an Inter-Ministerial Investigative Committee on Degree Certificate Milling.
Recall that the Federal Government had on January 9, set up the committee to probe the activities of degree racketeering in both foreign and local private universities.
The committee was mandated to review the role of any MDAs or its officials in facilitation of the recognition or the procurement of fake certificates.
Mamman, who expressed sadness over what was uncovered during the investigations, said that the ministry would work with relevant agencies to sanitise the education sector and rid it of any fake tendencies
Specifically, he said any government official found wanting would face the full wrath of the law.
“We can’t afford to have the integrity of our education soar by some few persons. It is possible that some are carrying fake certificates in public and private organisations that need to be flushed out. This report is a product of a thorough investigation.
It is sad that someone who should come out from a Nigerian institution with a 2:1 or 2:2 is now parading an international certificate of first class. The ministry is determined to take steps to sanitise the system,” he said.
He, therefore, pledged to take a decisive role to ensure standards were enshrined in the system.

The Katsina State governor, Dikko Radda, has revealed why banditry hasn’t been nipped in the bud.
Speaking with Channels Television on Friday, May 3, the governor accused some security personnel and government officials of aiding banditry which he says has now turned into a “business venture”.
“Now it has turned out to be a business venture. A business venture for the crimin@ls, some people who are in government; and some people who are in security outfits, and some people who are responsible for the day-to-day activities of their people.
These are so many reasons why we are not unable to bring banditry to an end,” he said.
According to him, many youths in the north are recruited into banditry with a mere N500.
