SANs Edu. a member of SANs Technology Institute, based in the United States of America has apologised for listing Nigeria as a “state sponsor of terrorism.”

SANs Edu. had denied a Nigerian seeking admission into the institute on the ground that the United States Department of State had listed Nigeria as a sponsor of terrorism.

The institute made the apology when an ICIR reporter called them out on Twitter, demanding that they retract their statement following a Fact Check in June that proved that Nigeria was never listed by the US as sponsoring terrorism.

“We sincerely apologize for the offense caused by the miscommunication to this applicant, which does not reflect our beliefs. We’ve been in direct contact with the student and are reviewing our processes to ensure this doesn’t happen again,” SANs Edu said in a response to The ICIR reporter’s tweet.

Nigerians on social media had reacted to a screenshot of the mail sent to the applicant whose name was protected in which the reason he was denied admission into the institute was because Nigeria is listed as a “state sponsor of terrorism” by the United States Department of State.

“Thank you for your interest and enquiry. We appreciate that you highlighted that your education and background is from Nigeria.”

“Unfortunately, this does, in fact, impact our ability to accept you into our programs. As a longstanding matter of policy, the SANS Technology of Institute does not accept students from a number of countries where the governmental regime is a cause for international concern,” the email to the applicant read.

The email then added in the case of the enquirer, the U.S. currently lists their country of citizenship (Nigeria) as a “state sponsor of terrorism.”

Sins of a few? Terrorists plenty for Nigeria o, particularly in the North and they are well supported and encouraged by the powers that be.

Well Thank you for giving us closure as a country, rather than wasting time pondering why we were rejected..
