Bilgin stated this while speaking at the 25th anniversary of the NTIC in Abuja, which was attended by Legit.ng over the weekend.

He said NTIC started its operation in Abuja with eight students and 12 staff members but the college has spread to other cities like Kaduna, Kano, Ogun, and Lagos.

Bilgin explained that the college is committed to offering a comprehensive education by implementing both the Nigerian and Cambridge Curricula.

“This approach has enabled students to excel not only in academic disciplines such as Sciences, Mathematics, and Arts on the global stage but also to achieve notable feats in sports, thus exemplifying NTIC’s holistic educational philosophy.”

The college honoured Nigeria’s past and present leaders including former presidents Muhammadu Buhari and Goodluck Jonathan with “Most Supporting Individuals” awards.
