Countries around the world are trying to make education as free as possible but one father, uncle and brother is suggesting we privatise the universities.

Students are struggling to pay the present tuition fee and he is taking about privatisation.


We have wicked and insensitive leaders in this country.

They always don't want to think to resolve problem, always looking for the cheapest way out of every problem even at the detriment of the masses

Juliusmalema:
Fortunately Ben Bruce is right.....very right.

But all these dafts can't reason....even they love the strike..

They are not aware ASUU is using them to enrich themselves not them coz as far as govt continues to manage there must be strike especially naija govt.

you and Bruce lee are the daft one here who can’t reason, if privatized,automatically the schools turn into a private school, is it all parent that will be able to afford their fees, or did they provide you with any student loan? If that’s the case most student in the govt schools would have been in a private schools if they have the funds to pay. Common sense is not common.

ednut1:
hahahahahaha naso. If i hear say govt give pple loan

my brother dat d issue oh

nzeobi:
before you condemn him profer a better alternative to the quagmire.
me thinks govt should pay salaries of the workers and let the money the school generates be used for infrastructures.

Can't you think? Are you as dull as Ben bruce

So that only his children will have education.

flexyrule:
Nigerians are not ready for progress. When an idea is presented to them, they first rush to attack the messenger, instead of brainstorming on the idea being presented.

I think you are one of the few that are thinking on this platform....... They want govt to do everything for them. Help me ask how many university government of America or UK controlling and how many times they have gone on strike.

We are not ready to learn from developed world or perhaps 'youths cant think well of a reasonable suggestion'

I now agree and strongly hold the view that poverty has really configured many minds and brains that they can't reason again......

Poverty is a very deadly disease.

Pamtoye:
I support him on this one... Strikes has crippled d Nigerian education system..... Privatization is d way.... But the way fees will skyrocket will be scary...... But u'll sha have a very quality education... So no loss... No price is 2 much 2 invest on education !!

please what quality have the present private universities brought to education?

hakeem4:
i do not think you understand his point. since the government is not capable of handling the affairs of government owned university they should sell it to private people or companies who have the capability to manage it

@bolded does not make any sense. silverbird is doing fine

your argument is selective. why don't you reference Germany or Scandinavian countries where there is free tuition? The private universities in the US, how many average Americans can attend them? Ben Bruce who benefited from a public education system is saying you should privatise it not because it is expensive, but because they refused to maintain and fund it and you are supporting them. Mr man go and think

Privatizing the Universities will be good but it may end up making the school fees out of the reach of poor families. Take the already private Universities for example. I just hope FG will not listen to this talk.

Response purely shows signs of poverty.

don't mind the fools supporting him. Ben Bruce that benefited from public education

This is the same Ben Bruce that would not support the construction of the Maritime University in Delta State. He sat in the Senate when they slashed the construction budget to 1/3 of the proposed amount.

ednut1:
hahahahahaha naso. If i hear say govt give pple loan. Entry govt jobs is between 40 to 70k . Private sector nko average of 70k. So how long would a grad take to pay an estimated 2m in loans. Do u think govt would increade wages Story

thank you most don't know what they are saying here agreeing to privitization even the Americans now student loans is in billions most are not able to pay back why can't we learn from Singapore or China or Korea especially must it be USA ni sweeden and Finland University is free and someone is telling us to privatize it's lack of vision they should learn from great AWOLOWO

I thought atiku is the messiah and he will win what then is the need to privatize public universities since he will performed better? God forbid to allow people these enter next year, Nigerians are in trouble

@bolded does not make any sense. silverbird is doing fine

Bruce is not making any sense.

We are not ripe for privatization of higher institutions. Even the highly subsidized school fees in our public institutions are still a problem for many Nigerians to handle. If we privatize now, higher education will become even more unaffordable.

Thank God he is of 5% extraction. His opinion is inconsequential. How on earth will politicians suggest education should be taken away from the poor.

helinues:
It seems like the Dubai trip was about selling anything sellable( assets) in Nigeria.

Why not sell Silverbird group first before we can take you serious.

Hello? Silverbird Group is a private sector enterprise.

!Na wa.

come to think of it, Mr Bruce is making sense.
privatize our universities,
privatize our judiciary,
privatize our legislature,
privatize our executive,
privatize our LGA's,
privatize the States,
privatize the FG.
then finally
privatize the country.
my question is after privatizing everything what then would they do with the revenue being generated.
after privatizing the institutions what would government spend money? keep saving it in foreign reserve? agbada reserve or suit reserve?

it's visionless leaders that cant handle leadership that sell all u listed I forgot most Nigeria politicians don't know anything about leadership

Oga

impossible

because of ASUU strike govt institutions can never be privatized

don't be stupid bruce

atikulated 2019

This is the worst advice ever. So that children of the less privileged wont have access to education due to exorbitant tuition fees. No way Ben. Retract this advice quickly.

deleo16:

I try to imagine in what way would citizens enjoy or benefit from the state in by way of educating the citizens and social infrastructure / amenities. all this they willing and ready to sell.

Hahahaha another shot , home goal at its peak . PDP is a joke , why is sell sell sell sell everything in their head now ?

And to think some people are still supporting this really funny. How many Nigerian can afford Convenant University? How many Nigerian can afford even Atiku's American University?

Nigerians please let's wake up , lets avoid these set of people from gaining power again by voting for Buhari, Let's forget the hate and whatever we have against Buhari personality, PDP back in power 'll really spell
doom for this country , I'm saying my own now .


Most of them already know what hardship is all about now because there is no room for stealing and sharing , just imagine they gain power back , the way they 'll siphon the treasury 'll be magical .

Am not saying Buhari is perfect but he's better than these thieves my people please , PDP has noting to offer this country .

It's understandable that Buhari might have done some wrongs , stepped on so many toes but trust me he's a human like us and we are not perfect .

According to Tony Mommoh, there is truly Unger in the land but Buhari economy policy is not responsible for that .

Buhari is like prophet in our generation and every prophet 'll go before you 'll knw their impact , no prophet was not castigated by their people am sure we all know that .

Let's be careful and cast our vote for Buhari/ Osinbajo.

They should just privatize nigeria.

grandstar:
Good Idea but Nigerian students aren't ready to be pay the real cost of education and there are no student loans available

exactly

This guys need to think out of the box. Universities should be granted autonomy to build dere igr's. Govt should give dem full independence to generate their own revenue, and dedicate enough money through research grants. Universities abroad are solutionists researching building and selling its own products instead of depending so much on govt. Or govt monitoring and taking all the generate and dole out paltry sum for its devt.

the school can't generate enough money due to the amount students pay
