ETHIOPIA has asked the Nigerian government to allow it engage the services of 600 professors, Nigeria's Ambassador to Ethiopia, Olusegun Akinsanya has said. Akinsanya told newsmen yesterday in Addis Ababa that the Ethiopian government wanted to recruit the professors to teach in the 12 new universities established in the country.
He said the Ethiopian government developed interest in Nigerian intellectuals based on the impressive performance of those who served as members of Technical Aid Corps (TAC). "Ethiopia is the highest beneficiary of TAC. Since 1996, more than a thousand of them have been here on a biennial basis, teaching in universities in different parts of the country," he said.
