The Kaduna State government has sealed 20 illegal Colleges of Health Sciences and private hospitals across the state.
The Kaduna State Commissioner for Health, Umma Kaltum-Ahmed, announced this on Friday, January 9, 2026.
The commissioner said the exercise was part of ongoing efforts to ensure private health institutions complied with established rules and regulations.
Kaltum-Ahmed stated that the move aimed to guarantee effective training of healthcare workers in the state and protect public health.
The affected institutions are located in Chikun, Igabi, Kaduna North, and Kaduna South Local Government Areas of the state.

Kaltum-Ahmed added that the action enforced guidelines for private health institutions and prevented unaccredited facilities from misleading the public under the guise of healthcare training.
She stressed that the exercise was necessary to stop the illegal production of unqualified health workers, which posed a serious risk to public safety.
The commissioner urged the people of Kaduna State to seek admission only in duly approved and accredited institutions to avoid wasting time and resources on unrecognised certificates.
Kaltum-Ahmed commended Governor Uba Sani for his leadership and support in repositioning the health sector to meet required standards and ensure quality healthcare delivery in the state.
