NIGERIAN UNIVERSITIES ARE OFTEN ON STRIKE. WHAT DO YOU THINK ARE THE   BEST WAYS TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEMS FACING NIGERIA’S CURRENT   EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM?

Generally, the
quality
of
education
in Nigeria is appalling, especially at the tertiary level. The fundamental challenges facing Nigeria's educational sector include inadequate funding, quaint academic curriculum, poor infrastructure,

inadequacies, among others. In a bid to force the government to channel adequate resources to
this
sector, academic and non-academic staff unions of
Nigerian
universities
have frequently embarked on strike actions. To address these challenges,
first,
the government should provide adequate funds and state-of-the-art research facilities for conducive research, teaching, and learning. The funds should be properly monitored and accounted for to avoid mismanagement. Lecturers’ salaries and welfare

This
is achievable by employing only qualified individuals and,

, providing periodical workshops and international fellowships to make them seasoned experts.
This
will essentially grant

from seasoned lecturers.
Third,
the academic curriculum needs to be revised and improved upon to be of international standard. There should be

Furthermore

will no longer be commonplace.
