The former vice chancellor of the University of Port-Harcourt Professor John Okpako Enaowho has called on the Federal Government of Nigeria to scrap the National Universities Commission (NUC) and Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) to avoid deterioration in Education.
The university don’t made this known while delivering his paper titled ‘Formal planning development in Nigeria education: The paradox of autonomy and dependence.’
In his paper, emphasis was laid on funding challenges in the tertiary institutions, he further stated that universities can generate fund for self-sustenance.
The former vice chancellor stated that, the centralisation of powers of the NUC and JAMB should be scrapped to enable universities admit as many students as possible to enable them procreate resources to operate independently.
He added: Education should be removed from the shoulders of the federal government because of its cumbersome responsibilities, revealing that the United States of America has its Universities top best in the world despite having free hand to operate.
Do you agree with Professor John Okpako Enaowho?
