The Ministry of Higher Education, Research, Science and Technology, has ordered the immediate closure of the University of The Gambia and other tertiary institutions amid the current global pandemic.

This swift move according to a statement incurred from the Registrar, is due to the rapid growth of Covid-19 in the country. Gambia College, Management Development Institute (MDI) and Gambia Technical Training Institute (GTTI) are also closed with immediate effect.
