A month after a WikkiTimes investigation exposed the Adamu Tafawa Balewa College of Education (COE) Kangere in Bauchi for failing to offer admissions despite selling forms to the applicants since 2022, the institution has released the first batch of successful applicants.
WikkiTimes earlier reported that the institution commenced screening of the applicants after the investigation.
In 2022, the College announced it would start offering degree programs in affiliation with Bayero University Kano (BUK). Over 1,000 prospective students applied for these undergraduate programmes. However, the applicants were left in a state of uncertainty as the programme did not commence as advertised.
