[News] Tinubu pledges full university autonomy

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has disclosed that his administration will be introducing a policy that will grant full autonomy to universities.

 

Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Engr. Abubakar Momoh disclosed this while representing President Tinubu at the 48th convocation of the University of Benin.

 

He said;

 

“University autonomy transfers the responsibility performance directly to the individual institution. This administration believes that this is the right step in the right direction.

“Our administration is poised to change the narrative of higher education for the better and to place the institution of higher learning on a pedestal that would enable them to compete with their counterparts across the world.”
