Abstract

The removal of petrol subsidies in Nigeria has resulted in a notable escalation in the prices of goods and services, impacting both public and private sectors. This phenomenon's pervasive effects extend to tertiary institutions, which are particularly vulnerable due to the nature of their services. This research paper systematically examines the impact of subsidy removal on tertiary education in Nigeria. Employing a secondary data approach, information was sourced from both printed materials and online publications. The findings unequivocally demonstrate that the removal of subsidies has cast adverse ramifications on tertiary education, manifesting as amplified operational costs, elevated tuition fees, increased expenses for research initiatives, augmented outlays for infrastructure provisioning, and necessitated alterations in pedagogical delivery methods across diverse tertiary establishments nationwide. To address these challenges, the paper presents a recommendation for Federal and State governments to allocate a minimum of 20% of the monthly saved subsidy funds toward tertiary education investments countrywide, simultaneously advocating for heightened research funding.

Abstract

The study examined Vice Chancellors and University Education Sustainability in Nigeria: Challenges and Way Forward. Vice Chancellors are major players and chief executive officers in the universities' administrations; hence their roles cannot be underestimated. The social and economic development of the universities depends on the job performance of the Vice-Chancellors. This paper critically looked at the concept of Vice-chancellors and the roles and functions of Vice-chancellors in the university system. The paper also examined factors that enhance the job performance of Vice-chancellors in the university system in Nigeria. This study attempts to provide an answer to the research question that says; how has the Vice Chancellors impacted University Education for Sustainability in Nigeria? The study employed an ex-post facto research method, using secondary data that were collected from print and online publications. Content analysis was the method of analysis. The paper established that the independence of Vice Chancellors, training and retraining, adequate funding, effective supervision and provisions of adequate working resources are the factors that will enhance Vice Chancellors' job performance and enable university education to be able to perform their roles in Nigerian society. Based on the findings of this study, the following recommendations were made: The Federal Government of Nigeria and the state governments should provide adequate funds for university administrators, infrastructure facilities, adequate working resources, grant autonomy to universities and ensure effective training and retraining programmes and supervision. The suggested solution will enable the university administrators (Vice Chancellors among others) to be effective in the discharge of their roles in the universities and make university education perform its role of social and economic development.

Abstract

This paper looked at Accountability in the University system in Nigeria and its Challenges. Secondary data were adopted for the paper. The secondary data were collected from online and print publications. The paper concluded that lack of political will, weak accountability culture, weak labour unions, weak participation of stakeholder, poor implementation of accountability policies, poor monitoring of universities by anti-corruption agencies and other regulatory institutions, political influence and lack of autonomy amongst others are the factors responsible for poor accountability in the university system in Nigeria. To address these challenges, the paper suggested that Federal and State Governments should develop the political will to ensure visitation panels are constituted every five years and the white paper released should be implemented as at when due, to promote accountability in the universities. University administrators and managers should be trained and retrained on the importance of ensuring and promoting the culture of accountability in the universities. The various labour unions in the universities should be proactive in ensuring accountability in the universities. Also, autonomy should be granted to the universities to eliminate political influence activities in the universities.
