  • University Education Finance and Cost Sharing in Nigeria: Considerations for Policy Direction
    0 University Education Finance and Cost Sharing in Nigeria: Considerations for Policy Direction 1Maruff A. Oladejo, 2Gbolagade M. Olowo, & 3Tajudeen A. Azees 1Department of Educational Management, University of Lagos, Akoka, 2Department of Educational Foundations, Federal College of Education (Sp), Oyo 3Department of Curriculum & Instructions, Emmanuel Alayande College of Education, Oyo 0 1 Abstract Higher education in general and university education in particular is an educational investment which brings with it, economic returns both for individuals and society. Hence, its proper funding towards the attainment of its lofty goals should be the collective responsibility of every stakeholders. This paper therefore discussed university education finance and cost sharing in Nigeria. The concepts of higher education and higher education finance were examined, followed by the philosophical and the perspectives of university education in Nigeria. The initiative of private funding of education vis-à-vis Tertiary Education Trust Fund (Tetfund) was brought to the fore. The paper further examined cost structure and sharing in Nigerian university system. It specifically described cost sharing as a shift in the burden of higher education costs from being borne exclusively or predominately by government, or taxpayers, to being shared with parents and students. Findings showed that Tetfund does not really provide for students directly. As regards students in private universities in Nigeria, and that private sector has never been involved in funding private universities. It was recommended among others that there is the need to re-engineer policies that will ensure effective financial accountability to prevent fiscal failure in Nigerian higher educational institutions, as well as policies which will ensure more effective community and individual participation such that government will be able to relinquish responsibility for maintaining large parts of the education system.

  • Attitude of Undergraduate Students to Unsolicited
    IJRDO-Journal of Educational Research ISSN: 2456-2947 ATTITUDE OF UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS TO UNSOLICITED SMS ADVERTISING BY GSM OPERATORS Awofadeju Peter Olayinka Department of Mass Communication, Achievers University, Owo, Ondo State, Nigeria. [email protected], 07032078695 Ewuola Philip Olubunmi Department of Mass Communication, Osun State Polytechnic, Iree, Osun State, Nigeria. [email protected] Abstract: This research was carried out to examine the attitude of undergraduate students to unsolicited SMS advertising by GSM operators, using the undergraduate students of Achievers University, Owo, Ondo State as the case study. Survey method of gathering data was adopted for this paper by distributing well-developed questionnaire to elicit responses from the respondents, the sample size of which was 120. The findings clearly showed that GSM operators’ unsolicited SMS advertisements generates unfavourable attitudes and they are mostly unbeneficial, unexciting, confusing, misleading, and irritating. In addition, they are neither of any informational values nor relevant because the messages were not permitted by the subscribers that receive them, which is why they delete them immediately after receiving them. Therefore, sending such unsolicited messages should be discontinued. Keywords: SMS, GSM, Message, Advertise Background to the Study Telecommunication in Nigeria received a boost in 2001 with the deregulation of the industry, which allowed private Global System of Mobile communication (GSM) service providers to come into the country to support the existing national operator, the Nigerian Telecommunications Limited (NITEL). Two private companies, Mobile Telecommunication Network (MTN) of South Africa and ECONET of Zimbabwe, were licensed by the Nigeria Communication Commission (NCC) to operate GSM in addition to NITEL, the country’s own telecommunication company.
