Gra gra government. Always repeating what has been enacted.

No need for this. The world has gone beyond this.

Good 👍

If you finish at 16, go and learn a tangible skill for 2 years before entering tertiary institution

Fighttillvictory:
Nig. seems to be on another dimension and does off point things. So students who finished their secondary school at 15 will have to wait for 3 years before entering uni. Isn't that potential killing

But their own kids will be flown abroad to gain admission and have an early start in life.

Abeg reduce price of food before all This Tori 😟😟😟

Follow my sigi

mrvitalis:
I'm china , USA and other developed countries people are finishing university at 13,14 , 15,

Some even get PhD at 19 , 20 21

Yet we want to Hold our own back till they are 18

Honestly federal government should allow states handle their education system abeg

You guys can keep making minimum age 30 even

If you can pass weac and jamb at the age of 10 I see no reason you should be denied admission honestly

Highest it should be restricted to school close to guiden

Finish university at 13, 14, 15 ke? 🙄

Dey lie small small.
In Asia, you don't finish high school until you're 17 years, not even 16.

And hope you know high school is still secondary school, not university? 🙄

This minister is an idiot.

You want to change the rules during the game when students have already registered and written the exams, with an officially stated entry age limit minimum of 16yrs ,for all universities?

Why should your child finish sec school at 15 or 16yrs. The primary school entry age is 6 or 7yrs plus the 12yrs of primary and Secondary schools. This will make a minimum of 18yrs.

So students that pass their WAEC/NECO and JAMB before 18 should do what prior to their 18th birthday?

Past government has mentioned this age thing in the past and nothing has changed.
To be honest I have a neighbour who forced his ward to be given double promotion in primary school, he got to secondary school at 9 years of age. When the boy was in JS3 he was 12 years old.
During Japa , the family went to Canada the boy was dragged back to grade 6.
It's expected in developed world that your ward will gain admission into grade 1 not less than 6 years of age.
I feel the government should start from the primary school to restore some sanity.
