Nigerian Turkish International College
has faulted the claim by the Turkish government that it was involved in
the recent coup in the country.
It, therefore, urged the Nigerian government to reject the call by Turkey to close down the 17 Turkish schools in Nigeria.
In a statement signed by the Managing
Director of the schools, Mr. Orhan Kertim, the call by the Turkish
Ambassador to the Nigerian government to close down the schools in
Nigeria was baseless.
Kertim noted that the schools are operating in partnership with Nigerians and they are not Turkish government owned.
He also described as an affront the call by the ambassador since Nigeria is a sovereign state.
