    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.

  • Role of Nigeria in the Development of Higher Education in Africa

    Role of Nigeria in the Development of Higher Education in Africa

    December 2010, Volume 7, No.12 (Serial No.73) US-China Education Review, ISSN 1548-6613, USA Role of Nigeria in the development of higher education in Africa Akinwumi Femi Sunday (Department of Educational Management, Faculty of Education, University Of Ibadan, Ibadan 234, Nigeria) Abstract: In most countries of the world, higher education is highly subsidized by the public sector. The subsidy is a result of the role of higher education sector on the economy and good governance of the nations. Enrolment into higher institutions of learning is quite low in Africa compare to other continents of the world due to the continent’s low and declining spending on her higher institutions of learning. This shabby contribution by the continent could be likened to a result of some imminent challenges, which ranged from inadequate financial resource due to economic and social crisis to the challenges posed by the HIV/AIDS pandemic. The contributions of Nigeria to the development of higher education in Africa is quite worthy of note. This can be affirmed by the increase in the number of states and federal universities in the country over the years since independence. This can be further reaffirmed by the promulgation of Decree 9 of 1993, which made the provision for the establishment of private universities, which further increased the nation’s total number of universities to 93 from 59 and further strengthened the nations contributions to higher education development in the continent. In spite of all efforts made by the FGN (Federal Government of Nigeria), the nation is yet to reach her potential in the development of her higher education sector as the percentage of potential students that gained admission into the nation’s higher institutions of learning still stand below 15% of the total number of applicants.

    Analysis of the Emergence and Development of Private Universities in Nigeria* (1999–2006)

    JHEA/RESA Vol. 5, Nos. 2&3, 2007, pp.39–66 © Council for the Development of Social Science Research in Africa 2007 (ISSN 0851–7762) Analysis of the Emergence and Development of Private Universities in Nigeria* (1999–2006) Isaac N. Obasi** Abstract One of the devastating consequences of the prolonged period of military dictator- ship in Nigeria is the non-development of a private higher education system. How- ever, with the emergence of democratic rule in 1999 and the liberalization of higher education, there has been a surge in the provision of private higher educa- tion. From a modest number of three pioneer private universities in 1999, there were 23 licensed private universities as at June 2005. This article provides an assessment of the development of these universities using the older ones as the basis of empirical analysis. Also, based on the available evidence, the article con- cludes that private universities are currently setting the pace, and serving as a source of positive challenge to the public universities, thereby providing the much- needed healthy competitive environment for the future growth and diversification of the entire higher education system in Nigeria. Résumé Une des conséquences dévastatrices de la longue période de dictature militaire au Nigeria est la non mise en place d’un système d’enseignement supérieur privé. Cependant, avec l’émergence d’un régime démocratique en 1999 et la libéralisa- tion de l’enseignement supérieur, il y a eu un essor dans l’offre d’enseignement supérieur privé. À partir d’un nombre modeste de trois universités pionnières en 1999, il y a eu 23 universités privées agréées en juin 2005.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Afe Babalola University Repository American Journal of Scientific Research ISSN 1450-223X Issue 7 (2010), pp.15-24 © EuroJournals Publishing, Inc. 2010 http://www.eurojournals.com/ajsr.htm Private Universities in Nigeria – the Challenges Ahead Ajadi, Timothy Olugbenga School of Education, National Open University of Nigeria E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Public universities had a near monopoly in providing university education in Nigeria until 1999. The market-friendly reforms initiated under the Structural Adjustment Programmes (SAP), the deregulation policies, and the financial crisis of the states created an encouraging environment for the emergence of the private universities in Nigeria. The legislative measures initiated to establish private universities in Nigeria also helped the entry of cross-border education, which is offered mainly through private providers. At present the private sector is a fast expanding segment of university education in Nigeria, although it still constitutes a small share of enrolment in university education. The paper attempts to analyse the growth, expansion, justification and the challenges of private universities in Nigeria. Keywords: Private universities, public universities, access, globalization, social demand, academic staff. Introduction In many African countries, the provision of University education by private institutions is a growing phenomenon when compared to other parts of the world; however, most African countries have been slow to expand the private sector in University education (Altbach, 1999). So also in Nigeria, the emergence of private universities as a business enterprise is an emerging phenomenon, a number of issues plague its development including legal status, quality assurance and the cost of service.

    Reaching Adventist Students in Secular Campuses With

    The History of Private Sector Participation in University Education in Nigeria (1989-2012) Omomia O. Austin Omomia T. A. James Adeyemi Oluwatoyin Babalola ABSTRACT—There has been a consistent quest for higher education (especially university) in Nigeria due to the unstable academic system, coupled with the total number of candidates seeking admission into the various higher institutions in Nigeria yearly. On the basis of this, it has become obvious that the existing higher institutions, which were mainly government-owned, cannot cope with the ever increasing demand for higher education in Nigeria. One of the basic solutions to this challenge is the liberalization of participation in the education sector. The study applied both historical and sociological methodology in its investigation. This study examined the history of higher education in Nigeria, from 1989 to 2012. In addition, it also examined the role played by the private sector in the Nigerian educational sector in this present dispensation. The writers recommended that there should be a consistent upsurge of private higher institutions in Nigeria to adequately address the challenge posed by high prospective students’ demand for university education. This is due to the fact that the government alone cannot handle the ever increasing demand for higher education in Nigeria.
