FULL LIST: Council for Legal Education names 114 universities approved to admit law students

 The Council of Legal Education (CLE) has listed the 114 universities approved to run law programme in Nigeria.

In a circular issued on Friday by Aderonke Osho, secretary to the council and director of administration, the CLE said only the listed universities are authorised to admit students into the bachelor of laws (LL.B) programme in the country.

“The public is further informed that any university that admits students into a Law programme without the approval of the Council of Legal Education is acting contrary to the provisions regulating legal education in Nigeria and will be subject to appropriate sanctions in accordance with extant regulations and policy,” the circular reads.

The council added that students admitted into law programmes in universities that are not accredited by CLE will not be eligible for admission into the Nigerian law school.
