The UI ASUU chairman urged Nigerians to continue to put pressure on government to do the needful by investing more in funding education. He said that private education was not an alternative to public schools and called on all Nigerians to support the strike to salvage the university

I am not holding brief for the wasteful Nigerian government but the reality is that university education is expensive and depending on government meagre subvention is not realistic. Somebody must pay for it.

The best approach is for appropriate school fee to be charged.

Why would Covenant university not top rating when they spend hundreds of millions annually to subscribe to international review agencies. How many of our public schools can boast of tenth of that amount on such.

Our public universities attract the best brains as lecturers and students with massive facilities left unmaintained. Yet they cannot compete because of pausity of fund.

Show me the best universities in the world and I will show you the most expensive universities (Harvard, Cambridge, Oxford, Yale, Pricinton, Stanford, MIT, Colombia, Calinstitute, etc)

ASUU, students (NANS) and government with other stakeholders should brainstorm on how our universities can be self sufficient financially that will restore lost glory and carter for the interest of indigent but qualified students.

We continue to blame the university system for churning out half bake graduates but we're not ready to do anything in order to revive it. What you give in is what you get in System theory.
