Recommendation has been made by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for financing of Nigerian universities.
Tinubu noted that universities in the country would get the needed resources to improve the level of university education in Nigeria with the public-private financing.
The president, who was represented by the Minister of state for Education Yusuf T Sununu, made this known on Monday in Ilorin, Kwara state capital at the 37th and 38th convocation ceremonies of the University of Ilorin, UNILORIN.
According to him: “The practice all over the world is that public universities benefit heavily from government funding but also augment their income through private financing.
“It was in realisation of this that the Federal Government signed into law the Students’ loan which will positively change the landscape of education in Nigeria.
