Dr. Sharehu further absolved teachers trained by the institution of any blame regarding poor quality of teachers, arguing that, various state governments should be blamed for not embracing a federal government institution like NTI because of politics.

He said, most state governments who are rejecting NTI products are only playing politics because they have established their state colleges of education and preferred to employ their products rather than that of the NTI.

He lamented therefore that, “most third world countries when somebody is competing with you he would resorts to condemning you rather than showing his expertise so that people would patronise him, but they would not do that, rather they would attack and critized you.”

Sharehu said NTI has the same entry criteria with other institutions, and all students admitted into the institutions must have that entry requirement before they are admitted.

He further said that their facilitators were about the best in the country who are produced by the Nigerian universities and other institutions. (Leadership)
