Is Phd our problem in Nigeria? Not at all. Moral decadence is our problem. Our leaders should be purged of demons of looting and maladministration and every other things will fall in place. |

Some of the best teachers I know here are not PHD holders. Matter of fact, most of them are not PHD holders, and I give them at least a 3.7 on koofers. While having more PHDs may sound good on paper, what we really need are better quality lecturers. That aside, we currently have a PHD holder running the country. How is that BEST BRAIN theory been working out for Nigeria so far? And yes, do we really need yet another committee to know why there are not a lot of PHD holders working as lecturers in our schools? Aren't we supposed to be hard at getting rid of these UNNECESSARY attachments? 5 Likes |

I am not surprised. Mushroom universities are springing up on monthly basis meanwhile there are few hands to teach in such schools. No wonder the whole system is dead. An education system in which 60% of teachers do not have PhD should qualify to be one of the worst in the world. What do they teach other than regurgitation of past notes kept from the 70s, 80s, 90s when they themselves were in school? A masters degree holder is teaching master students, poor stuff. WHat is taught in good schools is a product of research and you need at least a PhD holder to be competent enough to do that. I once took a course that the basis was completed within a month and the remaining two months were devoted to publications in top journals. If you have not published in such journals, how would be able to teach the latest research? We should stop building universities and concentrate on improving the ones we have at the moment. The PhD rule should be enforced. Give all universities five years to conform to at least 70% PhD holder on their faculty or be forced to weed out incompetent hands to achieve such ratio. |

bayooooooo: I am not surprised. Mushroom universities are springing up on monthly basis meanwhile there are few hands to teach in such schools. No wonder the whole system is dead. I hear you, but I think Madam Kobojunkie has a more balanced view on this subject. For a broader perspective, pay attention to the emboldened portion of the Times Education Supplement article presented below. ‘Massification’ takes toll on professoriate standardsSource |

eGuerrilla: I laugh no be small. I ask you, what technological breakthroughs have come from such countries? Are they models we can adopt and follow? Is it the same with Japan, Germany, S.Korea? You can't give what you don't have. You need people with PhD to teach substance not regurgitation of past notes from worthless curriculum. Any education system with such a sordid statistics is a disaster. |

bayooooooo: You can write many things about China (and even India), but the absence of technological innovation is not one of them. I urge you to be a little more circumspect before making any more blanket generalisations. |

It is good to have PhD but the truth is, how many of this so called PhD holders can deliver. I work in a University and it is obvious that lots of PhD holders in the university I work in did not undertake the research themselves. |

This my 'uncle' has really lost focus!! Abi he just want to create a ministerial committee to 'look' into creating more PhD's like himself? Uncle Jona, U make me ashamed sometimes to tell someone I am a PhD student. If all PhD's were to be like yours, I'll rather prefer my FSLC(primary 6). Stop setting up committees and start working!! I'm happy you won't come back to this Niger-Delta after your tenure, because it won't contain 2 of us. |

Is Ph.d d problem in our institutions- l doubt as much...where d technical,pratical n technological back up needed by d students is not there we end up producing more theoritical students who are inefficient with use of modern tech even sm of our so called Ph.d holders are no longer relevant in d system...l tink gov should upgrade our institutions rather than laying emphasis on paper qualifications. 1 Like |
