About 100 students, who graduated from Abia State College of Education (Technical) ASCETA Arochukwu, have been issued their certificates by the institution, over 25 years after completing their studies.
The graduates who arrived from different parts of the country, received the certificates from the management of the College on Thursday, May 21, 2026.
The development was made known in a statement issued by the Abia State College of Education Technical Arochukwu management.
According to the institution, the graduating sets spanned from 1999 to 2025.
The College of Education, which disclosed that a total of 681 certificates were ready for collection, encouraged the affected graduates to visit the institution to collect their own certificates.
“On Thursday, 21st May 2026, about 100 graduates from different parts of Nigeria returned to Abia State College of Education Technical Arochukwu to collect their certificates, with graduating sets spanning from 1999 to 2025.
“A total of 681 certificates are ready for collection. All concerned graduates are encouraged to visit the institution and collect theirs”, the ASCETA management said.
It would be recalled that the Abia State College of Education (Technical) Arochukwu experienced many years of instability, caused by poor funding, alleged embezzlement, removal and appointments of provosts, sack of workers and protests by workers over poor welfare.
The institution also suffered from poor infrastructure, management/labour union clash, drop in student enrollment, delayed release of students’ results, slow pace of clearance process, situations that forced many students to abandon their certificates or seek admission elsewhere.
