the same tinubu who said fuel subsidy is not sustainable went ahead to approve the establishment of 12 federal institutions and you still think "subsidy is gone" was a good pronouncement. cheesy cheesy

Baba OBJ is the most experienced Nigerian leader alive but they hardly listen to his advices owing to political reasons and dirty and smelly ego.
He said the refineries will never work, Onanuga and the rapist Remo mobilized the entire agbado online army to insult baba at the end baba was vindicated and as usual they lack Shane and decency to see at least sorry to the old General

Imagine the statistics of private universities is higher than both state and federal universities.
Anyways it's nice idea cos they need to upgrade existing universities like what Peter Obi did when he was Anambra state governor.

At last, the FG has finally come to self-realization!

Instead of adequately funding the existing tertiary institutions, it went about the political proliferation of these institutions and now reality has finally dawned on it that it had been a misplaced priority and a glaring economic burden.

5 or 7 years is too small!

The period should be indefinite until such a time when the current ones have attained sound footing and the need for new ones arises.


State governments, individuals and private entities must equally be compelled to abide by the law.

Stop using ineffectiveness of one region to judge others. He was explicit on why they wanted the moratorium but because they dont want it to sound tribal hence every region was affected. The Eastern Nigeria was the reason for establishing most Northern Universities but things have changed and the East now has theirs and the north can't occupy all the Universities the government established in the North.

About time.

We need educational budgets and grants.
It’s commendable

There are many buildings that are now called Universities
Re: FEC Imposes 7-year Ban On Establishment Of New Federal Tertiary Institutions by Jman06(m): 8:48pm On Aug 13, 2025
Not only putting a moratorium on establishment of new universities, some of the existing ones should be merged with others to make them more functional!

The bolded is true. I know many Easterners back then schooling in Northern Universities whose parents live in the East because schooling in the North is cheaper and secondly, the Eastern Universities are too competitive because of limited space.
I guess they left the North because of insecurity.
