Supervising Minister of Education Nyesom
Wike, while presenting the letters at a meeting with vice chancellors
in Abuja, said the Federal Government was committed to improving
university education.
The exercise will begin with the North
central Zone at the Federal College of Agriculture, Makurdi, he said.
Wike said the Southeast would meet at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka,
on March 11, while University of Port Harcourt would host the
South-south on March 10. The minister added that the Ahmadu Bello
University would host the Northwest while the Southwest would converge
on University of Ibadan.
He urged the universities not to see the
exercise as an audit of their financial expenditure but a sensitisation
of what they were doing to revitalise education. Wike said the events
would be transmitted live on the media for the public to know what
investments the government was making in the sector and what the schools
have on ground.
