Motto: A Key to Academic Success

Brief Histroy: In a bold attempt to fully top the potentials of the private sector in the areas of education, the Education (National Minimum Standards and Establishment of institutions) Decree of 1985 was amended in 1993 January as follows: An Institute of the Federation or of a state of by a local government or by any of the following, that is: a. By company incorporated in Nigeria or b. By an individual who satisfy the criteria set in the schedule to this Act f establishment of institutions. Following this Decree, the guidelines for the establishment of Private Polytechnics, monotechnics and other similar tertiary institutions was drafted as a guide for all prospective proprietors of private polytechnics and colleges of technologies, with the National Board for Technical Education (N.B.T.E) As the statutory body set up by the Federal Government to manage and control all matters relating to polytechnics. With this deliberate policy of government, Fidei Polytechnic was established as an answer to the cry of thousands of Benue indigenes who were either being eliminated out of other schools or could not gain admission into the only one existing polytechnic in the state and elsewhere. Thus, the Very Revd. Fr. Dr. Chris Utov came into the initiative to establish Fidei Polytechnic inorder to complement government’s effort in the education sector through private participation.
