NAFTI, GIJ,GIL merger bill before cabinet

January 12, 2019

The University of Media Arts and Communication Bill aiming to merge the National Film and Television Institute (NAFTI), Ghana Institute of Journalism(GIJ) and the Ghana Institute of Languages(GIL) as one University, has been laid before cabinet , Minister of State in Charge of Tertiary Education, Prof. Kwesi Yankah has revealed.

The move became necessary when government observed none of the Institutions qualified to be an independent University.

Apart from GIJ, NAFTI and GIL award their degrees through their affiliated University, University of Ghana. Government however believes consolidating the three institutions would enable them to award their own degrees, maximise resources and improve infrastructure.
