The Office of the Attorney General and Ministry of Justice has formally requested the docket of a case involving the Royal Nursing College in Kumasi. The college's facility was shut down by the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) for operating without the required accreditation.
According to verified reports from Citi News, the Attorney General's request is a procedural step to review the facts of the case. The GTEC's enforcement action against the institution is part of a broader regulatory crackdown on unaccredited tertiary institutions across Ghana.
The Royal Nursing College, located in the Ashanti Region, was found to be admitting and training students without the necessary authorization from the national accrediting body. This poses significant risks to educational standards and professional qualifications in the healthcare sector.
The Attorney General's intervention indicates the case may proceed for further legal review or potential prosecution. The development underscores the government's ongoing efforts to regulate the tertiary education landscape and protect students from unaccredited institutions.
