BREAKING!

Federal Government adopts TASUED Ogun State as Federal University

The Federal Government has officially adopted Tai Solarin University of Education (TASUED), Ogun State, as a Federal University. Established in 2005, TASUED is Nigeria’s first specialised university of education and the first federally owned tertiary institution in Ogun East.

President Tinubu approved the transition on Friday, acknowledging the Ogun State Government's invitation. He highlighted that the move honours Chief Obafemi Awolowo and Dr Tai Solarin for their contributions to education. He also recognized the Awujale of Ijebuland’s role in saving the institution from closure in 2012.

TASUED’s federal status aligns with the government’s goal of strengthening teacher education. It now joins Alvan Ikoku Federal University of Education and Adeyemi Federal University of Education as Nigeria’s three universities of education.

STATEHOUSE PRESS RELEASE

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ADOPTS TASUED OGUN STATE AS FEDERAL UNIVERSITY

The Federal Government has adopted the Tai Solarin University of Education (TASUED) in Ijagun, Ogun State as a Federal University.



Established by the Ogun State Government in 2005, TASUED holds the distinguished position as Nigeria's first specialised university of education. It was named after Dr Tai Solarin, a revered activist and the founder of Mayflower School in Ikenne.



As a federal institution, TASUED will be the first federally owned tertiary school in Ogun East senatorial district. With a well-developed infrastructure and academic programme, the transition requires minimal federal investment.



President Tinubu approved the adoption on Friday and thanked the Ogun State Government for inviting the Federal Government to take over the school, one of the state's best educational assets.



"It is an opportunity for the Federal Government to honour Chief Obafemi Awolowo, who began the revolutionary free education programme in Western Nigeria and Dr Tai Solarin, who spent most of his life educating our children and impacting patriotic and leadership lessons in them at Mayflower School in Ikenne", President Tinubu said.



"It is also in honour of the Awujale of Ijebuland, who played a critical role in preventing the university's closure in 2012, just seven years after its establishment," he added.



Awolowo and Solarin were celebrated figures from the Eastern Senatorial District of Ogun State, encompassing Ijebu and Remo.



President Tinubu emphasised that TASUED's transition into a Federal University of Education is a strategic step in the Federal Government's commitment to bolster teacher education and enhance the quality of instruction across all educational levels.



With TASUED's new status, the Federal Government oversees seven education universities. They are Alvan Ikoku Federal University of Education in Owerri, Adeyemi Federal University of Education in Ondo and Federal University of Education, Kano. Others are the Federal University of Education, Zaria; the Federal University of Education, Pankshin Plateau State and the Federal University of Education, Kontagora, Niger State.

Few days ago, almost all the new licences announced for private universities went to the southwest.
Before then, new federal Universities were announced, and most went to the southwest.
Now this..

So far so far, Tinubu has been a great blessing to tertiary education. With the way he’s going, every single person who desires university education will get the opportunity to fulfill their dreams.

Federal universities are now everywhere and indigent students don’t even have to bother about school fees and pocket money as Federal government’s student loans initiative has them covered. For the first time In two years, universities have completed their academic programs without a single ASUU strike. Yet, haters like Atiku and Peter Obi will rather paint a gloomy picture instead of appreciate the great effort this administration is making.

Better funding for the school... Good one.

Seems Ogun state is struggling to fund the university alongside OOU which is the main state university... I wonder where Ogun state is spending their IGR, cos no reasonable projects in the state despite the heavy taxes they receive.

how has tinubu been a blessing to tertiary education?

what is the "great effort this administration is making"?

has the standard of tertiary education improved in any way under tinubus administration?

how will these students pay back these loans?

how much is the loan and how does it cover school fees and pocket money?

what dignified employment opportunities has tinubu created to cater for the many anticipated graduates of these universities?
