Through a statement, the ministry said the group was not an official representation of academic staff or professors from institutions of higher learning (IPT) in the country.
It also said that MOHE had no direct or indirect connection with the positions expressed by the group in the declaration.
"MOHE respects the rights and freedom of expression of every individual and academician. However, for those who are still serving as civil servants, their actions are subject to compliance with the existing rules and provisions of the law," read the statement.
