National Universities Commission information


The National Universities Commission (NUC) is a government commission for promoting quality higher education in Nigeria. Situated in Abuja, it was established in 1962 as an advisory agency in the cabinet office.[1] In 1974, it became a statutory body and its first executive secretary was professor Jibril Aminu.[1][2] NUC is currently part of the Federal Ministry of Education and is a parastatal (government-owned corporation).[3]

The commission has a governing council, currently headed by professor Shehu Galadanchi and its executive secretary is Abubakar Adamu Rasheed, who assumed office on 3 August 2016.[1] Since its establishment, the commission has transformed from a small office in the cabinet office to an important arm of government in the area of development and management of university education in Nigeria.[4]
