Nigerians are watching this new phase of the drama between ASUU and the Federal Government, with growing expectations of yet another university closure.
The fact remains that Nigeria is trapped in a solemn, elusive circle that continues to deter her progress and threaten her future.
What a country! The intellectuals and democratic leaders cannot find synergy on a common issue.
2009 Agreement, Revitalization Fund, and Needs Assessment are the scandalous terms that have failed to be properly defined or implemented by the “Minds and Might” group.
Intellectuals and visionary leaders foster progressive and developed societies, while negativity and conflict only hinder national growth.
While the advanced world has moved from traditional education to entrepreneurial education, the largest Black nation on earth is still struggling to reform its outdated educational system.
Are Nigerian intellectuals and leaders truly serious about developing the country’s most important sector?
We must remind ourselves that we live in a technological age—one where education is more important than ever.
This should be the final battle between the combatants—one that produces a lasting solution and unites the university system once and for all.
Political leaders must support the President in upholding his oath, for the future of education is directly tied to the future of the nation.
