 * Keep It is a Catholic-affiliated university in Nigeria, founded 2009, with a brick and mortar campus (not just some online effort), accredited by the National Universities Commission per, with programs leading to Bachelors degrees in many subjects, with plans to eventually offer Masters degrees and PhDs. The common outcome of countless AFDs has been to assume notability for such a university. It has had at least two instances of newspaper coverage accessible online: , . The latter site says the school has now expanded to 1500 students and is building its permanent campus on a 250 hectare site. Although the subject appears to qualify for an article, the tone of the article is promotional and seems to be a possible copyright violation of the schools linked website, so stubbing and eventual re-write, perhaps including the articles as sources, is needed.
