Ogun State has both private and government owned higher polytechnics which is in addition to already existing primary and secondary schools. Like other states, Ogun State recognizes that education is key to development hence the need for collaboration with the private sector for more higher educational institutions (polytechnics) to meet the educational demands of the already teeming population in the state.
Every academic session, students apply for admission so the need for schools that fall within their catchment area becomes necessary. This means that if you are from Ogun state, you will most often choose schools that fall within your catchment area because this gives you an edge in the admission selection process hence the increase in the search for schools in Ogun state.

If you’re searching for polytechnics in Ogun State, a generic search for “polytechnics in Ogun State” won’t do.
