The rate of unemployment in Nigeria is at 50%.

If that does not reset your brain to vote right in 2023, nothing will.

Why are you people blaming the man. He is the minister for Education not employment.

Back in the days, the lecture halls are always jam-packed. You can hardly breathe well. Certainly Nigeria needs more Universities that must be well funded.

So many kids are home waiting for admission.

He is not responsible for unemployment in Nigeria, and that shouldn't stop him from doing his job.

Its like telling the Road Safety Officers to leave the road because Nigeria has bad roads. That is not their problem, their job is to ensure safety on the road. The minister is right on this one.

Have you adequately funded the available ones? What matters is quality before quantity Mr Education minister.

Any leader that cannot give us practical steps on how to leverage on SMEs does not deserve the presidency.

Oratory and fine speech will no do it.
Perspire to acquire speeches will not do it.

Nigerians, make una hear word now o.

SMEs are the drivers of employment.
Any president that does not have a practical, understandable and feasible plan for SMEs does not deserve to be president.

Any mistake in 2023 would be dire. Nigeria is already on the precipice.

You are right, but are Nigerians ready for that?? Everybody wants a B.sc.

Growing up, most of the technical colleges used to be filled up. On my way home after school, you find the technical students in their hundreds leaving school, while some are going for their afternoon lectures.

As at the time i left Nigeria years ago, story has changed. Technical colleges are not what it used to be.

NIGERIA LEADERS AND THE PRIVATE SECTOR SHOULD CREATE JOBS

WE NEED MORE JOBS IN NIGERIA

JOBS ! JOBS ! JOBS!

Then, no need to complain about increasing unemployment rate.

With the law of demand and supply of labour, the already devalue first degree certificates in labour market will move to lost value. In pre 80s, with Ordinary Level certificate (WAEC) you are sure of good sustainability job. Today, you cannot even use it to look for job.
Re: Adamu Adamu: Nigeria Needs More Varsities, 197 Not Enough by EgunMogaji2: 7:55am On Apr 09, 2021
I disagree. What we need more are technical schools with practical hand son experience.

Imagine a Marine Engineer that has never been on board a ship or inside a ship's engine room.

You should thank Jonathan for the 15 universities created.

Re: Adamu Adamu: Nigeria Needs More Varsities, 197 Not Enough by Nobody: 7:58am On Apr 09, 2021
Nigeria needs more industries , job and business opportunities, not varsities.

A degree certificate is not a product, has little value when there are no skills to go with it.

Now you see why we can never develop as a Nation because of the type of leadership we have , they re bereft of ideas and out of touch with reality.
Re: Adamu Adamu: Nigeria Needs More Varsities, 197 Not Enough by seyz91(m): 7:58am On Apr 09, 2021
dont begin to think, its cursed already
dpete1:
Wow

And more Polytechnics and College of Educations.

So that they will be extremely underfunded and begin to Strike like Sango

Or
So that unknowingly, Students will study courses that are not accredited, thereby wasting their days

Or

So that we will have more Nonchalant Lecturers who dedicates A for God, B for Jesus, and C for Holy Spirit.

Or

So that we'll have more Graduates Roaming the streets like a Swine of Pigs, in worn out "Interview Suits"

I'm really beginning to think Nigeria is Cursed...

They be been converted to degree awarding universities, all you need to do is sort lecturers and you get 2.1, sort or Bleep.

Government policy lead to that. Requirements to start university in Nigeria is nothing to write about. If government is establishing more secondary and technical schools with good standards, we would not be having mushroom universities everywhere.
