iwonbaoko: What is LMAO? is that short hand for poverty of ideas? How do you think Finland achieved its goals of high GDP with moderate population? Is it not through education? Same education that is free in their country? Is it by outsourcing every government responsibility, taking the glory of the success of such outsourcing while enriching themselves doing nothing? Peopla like to see just one side of a story. I read in another thread that our government will quickly copy anything from the west that makes them lazy while contributing to their pockets; anything that requires responsibility and responsive governance is sniffed at. A revolution is coming, it might not just be the palatable one we imagined. 6 Likes |

lafuria1: Sustainability is key, increased tuition and yet the quality doesn't improve rather the allowance of the lecturers would increase. And how do you bring your research idea into fruition? With the lab facilities that are 40 years behind western universities? You Nigerians accuse your university lecturers of not being able to bring about good ideas. How can they.....when they don't have the facilities to produce such ideas? And when the Govt told ASUU last year that there wasn't enough money....what did you expect? No wonder the Pro-chancellors are now saying tuition fees......Govt has told them there isn't enough cash. |

Maximus17: Abeg, the one wey them dey collect bfr nw na wetin?? Cos I paid abt 44k during my finals at UNN last year.....so what are they saying?? Increment?? What did you expect? Last year ASUU went on strike. Part of the strike demands was that govt gives extra cash to the universities....to fund not only salaries...but also facilities. GEJ, Mr Wike, and Mr Wogu told them that they did not have the money. Instead of the N3trillion offered in 2009.....they offered N1 trillion over 5 years. ASUU was forced to agree....and thus the journey to high fees was embarked upon.(Guess you are wishing ASUU held out instead of giving in so easy, huh?). The truth of the matter is, corruption or no corruption.....there isn't enough money for Nigerian universities anymore. Or indeed any other tertiary institution. That is why ASUP is still on strike,and polys are closed.Mr Wike told the Senate a few months ago that they had actually agreed something with ASUP ages ago...but when the agreement was put in front of the Salaries and Wages Commission,it was rejected out of hand. The truth of the matter is that we can no longer subsidize Nigerian tertiary education. We just don't have the money.. 2 Likes |

[sub][/sub] bushdoc9919: You're mixing the priorities up. The way forward is not to cut off education to those who need it as a base for whatever aspiration they desire. Nigeria just rebased its economy, it shows that non-oil sectors have contributed in large extents to the growth. This means that Nigerians are using whatever education they have to make a success of themselves, oil or not. What has been the benefits for Nigerians from oil? Is it low fuel price? Constant electricity? Water supply? Good working environment? These are things more responsible economies take for granted. That we have come this far without govt help is a miracle that is not adduced to "begging for oil". Education has at least helped in this regard and you support that they take that out too? Pray? While the govt hands off all these, what will they be doing? Why will our recurrent expenditure still be as high as 65% of our budget? In fact why will we still need a govt to rule and not lead us? 2 Likes |

In as much I believe that education is expensive and its currently underfunded,introducing an outrageous tuition can never be the way out unless education will be taken out of the reach of the low class and middle class of the citizens of the country,A Gorvernment that will not subsidize education should be ready to subsidize other neccessities of life of the citizens.If we have to pay tuition,then we don't have to fuel our generators our government should definately fix our power,If we have to pay more for education then the economy must be robust,provide jobs for people with decent income,and should provide basic infrastructures for her citizens. Can't still fathom why a Gorvernment who took away subsidy on fuel promising to re-invest it back to the economy without any changes will still wan't to remove subsidy on education which is the right of every citizen.There is only one thing to this Government only wan't to free up money from education sector and have it embezzled 2 Likes |

semitunde: [sub][/sub] The fact of the matter is that thanks to the Govt telling ASUU last year that they did not have any extra money for universities...increased fees became likely. Unless,we remove the fuel subsidy. Nigeria just rebased its economy, it shows that non-oil sectors have contributed in large extents to the growth. This means that Nigerians are using whatever education they have to make a success of themselves, oil or not. Rebased which economy? Calculate GDP per capita...and that rebasing looks like small change We don't have a proper industrial economy....where we develop an idea and build an industry out of said idea.We just have telecoms industries which make money off foreign inventions. We do not manufacture any of the components that we use in our telecom industries at all, not even phones. What has been the benefits for Nigerians from oil? Is it low fuel price? Constant electricity? Water supply? Good working environment? These are things more responsible economies take for granted. That we have come this far without govt help is a miracle that is not adduced to "begging for oil". Education has at least helped in this regard and you support that they take that put too And the problem is that because Nigerians over dependent on oil...we do not manufacture the components needed for constant electricity,water supply etc...we import them at high prices.....and repair them at high prices too. We are underdeveloped because we rely too much on oil . (Read the article Pass the books,hold the oil for the reason why....link here ...http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/11/opinion/sunday/friedman-pass-the-books-hold-the-oil.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0) Plus,what do you think is an educated person? The problem is that you Nigerians think an educated person is someone with a university degree. Meanwhile, we have a scarcity of technicians because millions of Nigerian youth waste their money getting paper education...instead of getting a technical education. So we have millions with useless qualifications for office jobs......and very few technical people......people who actually help your economy grow. 2 Likes |

bushdoc9919: Our educational system is faulty and no amount of money invested into it will rectify it. If we teach students btw primary 1 - university level 2 on how things work, are produced and designed using real/computer videos through projectors or flat screens, the technological products that will be developed by these students when they get to the universities and patent by the universities will generate lots of money to fund the universities without increasing school fees. |

Personally, I believe govt should stop subsidising university education heavily. The few assistants govt should render are provision of scholarships, grants, non interest students loan, bursary, financial awards to indigent, brilliant or truly deserving students. A lot of youths has no business in the university, and are better off learning vocational and technical skills. As a developing nation the above is what we need, not all these inconsequential paper certificates. Nigeria is seriously losing out on globalisation compared to asian countries and this is because we have a poor value supply-chain network. We just cant convert crude raw materials/natural resources into finished products. We export everything raw, and we import only finished goods. Thus our inability to create jobs and the subsequent high unemployment what we need in this country is more of technical education, vocational training and less of university certificates. even in developed countries like u.k, their govt is placing emphasis on technical education university education should be reserved for those interested in logic, research or innovation. 1 Like |
