Every year, 75% of Varsity Applicants are not Admitted.

In his address to Federal University vice chancellors in Abuja, Dr. Alausa laid out ambitious plans to close this disparity. Among these are the mandatory implementation of hybrid learning by 2025 and the integration of Anthology Blackboard system by the end of the year, with compliance determining universities’ eligibility for ICT intervention funding. He underlined the need of using technology, especially in areas where physical attendance is disrupted due to conflict.

In order to bridge the skills gap, the minister advised universities to give specialised education top priority in addition to technology. In order to increase student housing outside of campuses, he also suggested public-private partnerships.

In instance, for professional degrees like law and medical, JAMB only enforces quotas stipulated by regulatory agencies, according to JAMB Registrar Prof. Ishaq Oloyede. He reiterated the urgent necessity to restructure policies.

Prof. Tanko Yusuf, chairman of the Committee of Vice Chancellors, cited outdated curricula, low salary, and persistent underfunding as the main issues. To alleviate overpopulation, he emphasised the necessity of improved finance, modernised curricula, and vocational training.

Dr. Alausa made it plain that these changes are mandatory, signalling a firm move to modernise higher education in Nigeria.
