The standard of teaching was raised with minimum qualification set and only those who met the qualification were expected to be employed to teach at the level of primary education. • Intensive crash programmes were introduced to produce teachers for primary schools. • In the Second Republic between 1979 – 1983, the ruling National Party of Nigeria at the Federal level advocated “Qualitative Education” rather than “Free Education 4 • Loans Boards, Bursary and Scholarship were introduced by Governments, faith-based organisations, individuals and employers to expand the horizon of education affordability in Nigeria. • The Federal Government in 1994 established Education Bank which died before take-off. 5 • President Olusegun Obasanjo, on his second coming introduced the Universal Basic Education, making education free at the Basic level covering Primary and Junior Secondary education (Basic Education). • The Universal Basic Education Commission was introduced to maintain standard and to ensure quality. State Government also introduced the State Universal Basic Education Board to concurrently maintain and sustain standard at this level. 6 • Following the defunct of the Nigeria Education Bank, the Education Trust Fund (later TETFUND) was established. • The Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFUND) has been the saving grace for virtually all Government owned institutions in Nigeria. 7 TETFUND AND EDUCATION TERTIARY EDUCATION TRUST FUND (TETFUND) ALLOCATION TO EACH TERTIARY INSTITUTION 2010 – 2016 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 S/N Beneficiary (Nm) (Nm (Nm) (Nm) (Nm) (Nm) (N) 1 Universities 395.00 595.00 646.00 912.00 337.00 1.00941bn 303.14 2 Polytechnics 240.00 337.00 443.00 661.00 250.00 691.632m 216.56 Colleges of 3 190.00 319.00 390.00 581.00 227.00 679.05m Education 157.17 8 TETFUND AND EDUCATION CONT’D TERTIARY EDUCATION TRUST FUND (TETFUND) ALLOCATION AND DISBURSEMENT IN OGUN STATE INSTITUTIONS 2011 - 2016 S/N TERTAIRY INSTITUTIONS ALLOCATION DISBURSEMENT BALANCE (N) (N) (N) University of Agriculture, 1 7,213,638,276.67 4,954,145,476.40 2,259,492,800.27 Abeokuta Tai Solarin University of 2 1,325,916,939.00 902,298,597.00 423,618,342.00 Education Olabisi Onabanjo 3 3,229,442,776.67 2,449,695,562.75 779,747,213.92 University, Ago Iwoye 4 Federal Polytechnic, Ilaro 2,470,367,194.00 2,036,184,922.00 434,182,272.00 Moshood Abiola 5 2,465,599,302.00 1,373,549,425.00 1,092,049,877.00 Polytechnic, Abeokuta Abraham Adesanya 250,000,000.00 - 250,000,000.00 6 Polytechnic Tai Solarin College of 7 1,853,188,965.50 982,877,083.13 870,311,882.37 Education, Ijebu Ode Federal College of 8 3,338,055,613.50 2,047,934,814.50 1,290,120,799.00 Education, Osiele, Abeokuta Total 22,146,209,067.34 14,746,685,880.78 7,399,523,186.56 9 TETFUND AND EDUCATION CONT’D TERTIARY EDUCATION TRUST FUND (TETFUND) INTERVENTION IN OGUN STATE 2016 ALLOCATION S/N TERTAIRY INSTITUTIONS AMOUNT (N) 1 University of Agriculture, Abeokuta 1,009,410,000 2 Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago Iwoye 1,009,410,000 3 Federal Polytechnic, Ilaro 691,632,000 4 Moshood Abiola Polytechnic, Abeokuta 691,632,000 5 Federal College of Education, Osiele, 679,057,000 Abeokuta 6 Tai Solarin College of Education, Ijebu Ode 679,057,000 Total 4,760,198,000 State to choose State-Institution to be funded in each of the three (3) categories 10 TETFUND AND EDUCATION CONT’D • Let us imagine that there is no Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFUND), students would have paid for all these services and majority of them would not have been able to afford the fees that would have been charged. • The alternative would have been decay or lack of infrastructure and lack of quality. 11 TETFUND AND COMPETITIVE FUNDING 2013 NRF BENEFICIARIES Principal S/N Beneficiary Institution Grant (N) Researcher 1 Prof. Ibiyemi, University of Ilorin 11,580,000.00 Tunji Samuel Yekeen O.
