The Federal Government has approved the appointment of Prof. Suleiman Bogoro, as the Executive Secretary of the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFUND).

Bogoro’s appointment follows the removal of Abdullahi Baffa as the agency’s Executive Secretary.

Bogoro was Executive Secretary between April 2014 and February 2016. Subsequently, Baffa was appointed to replace him.

According to a statement issued by Ben Goong, Deputy Director, Information, Ministry of Education, Bogoro’s appointment is with immediate effect, and the reinstatement was also with the same terms and conditions as it were in his previous appointment and as stipulated in the TETFUND staff conditions of service.

Baffa was an aide to the Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu Adamu. The sacked Executive Secretary was appointed the head of TETFund alongside 14 other heads of parastatals in the education ministry on August 2, 2016.

An unconfirmed report has it that Baffa had been having a misunderstanding with Adamu, particularly as it concerns 2019 intervention.
