The Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, has said alternative funding remains a viable solution for public universities to generate revenue for themselves without depending on the government.

While making his remarks, the Director General, Budget Office of the Federation, Akabueze, aligned with Fashola’s position, saying, “There has to be sustainable funding of tertiary education. We can’t continue with the current system because it is not working and not sustainable.”

However, a Professor of the Department of Education Administration & Planning, University of Calabar, Uduak Ekpo, disagreed with the proposal. She said, “If lecturers run away from their core mandate of academic excellence through research and teaching and go into business, funding of the university, education will suffer.”All rights reserved.
