KNSG shuts down illegal Health institutions

The Kano State Ministry of Health 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.

in a statement signed by the information officer of the ministry Hadiza Mustapha Namadi and made available to journalist in Kano.

2. 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.

5. People are equally required to note that only the dully registered institutions and accredited courses should be patronized as any subscription to un-recognized schools is tantamount to self-subjection to security risks, doom academic and career prospects, as well as financial deceptions.
6. The Ministry will cooperate with all stakeholder agencies to ensure regular monitoring and inspection of the Health Training Institutions (HTIs) across the state for sanity and safety.
7. May Allah bless Kano State, amen.
