The federal government is considering privatising the Nigerian College of Aviation Technology in Zaria.

This is in line with government policy, which seeks to engage private investment in parastatals in order for them to be profitable, according to the rector of the college, Adebayo Araba.

'There is a plan to commercialise and privatise some government agencies under which NCAT falls. Whatever we do now shall be in collaboration with government because of the new orientation from the minister of aviation, which does not permit debt. All students would be required to pay school fees,' said Araba.
