The Ministry of Health has taken immediate action by suspending Frederick Anaba, Principal of the College of Nursing, Nkanchina, pending a thorough investigation into alleged irregularities in admissions and the implementation of unapproved academic programmes.
This decision, as outlined in a press release dated March 12, 2026, is part of a broader administrative inquiry into the reported over-admission of students and unauthorised programme establishments.
According to the ministry, the suspension follows a query issued to Mr Anaba on February 19, 2026, concerning the institution’s 2025/2026 admissions process.
After reviewing the principal’s response, authorities deemed it necessary to conduct a comprehensive investigation to ascertain the facts surrounding the allegations.
Mr Anaba has been instructed to transfer administrative responsibilities to the acting vice principal, ensuring the institution’s seamless operation during the investigation.
Meanwhile, the ministry has reiterated its commitment to enforcing adherence to approved admission quotas and authorised academic programmes in all health training institutions nationwide.
