Truetells Nigeria reported that the Acting Secretary and Director of Administration of the Nigerian Law School, Aderonke Osho, made this known in a statement, stating that the institution was banned for consistently violating its admission quota of 50 students per session as approved by the Council of Legal Education (CLE).
