Despite public outcry over the proliferation of universities in Nigeria, the Federal Executive Council meeting presided over by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo went ahead to grant licenses to 37 new universities in the country.
Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, revealed the information after the extraordinary Council meeting on Monday, May 15.
Politics Nigeria gathered that the new development brings to 72 the total number of universities licensed by the Buhari administration since 2015.
Adamu did not reveal the names of the universities but mentioned that one of them is an online university, the first of its kind in Nigeria, and owned by a woman from Bauchi State, with the expectation that it will cater for the likes of northern Muslim women who feel reluctant or are restrained from attending physical campus education.
Fielding questions on the expediency of additional universities given funding challenges of the existing ones, Adamu explained that these ones are all private, with enough funds to run them and they should not be denied the opportunity to exist.
The Minister further explained that Nigeria actually needs more universities as the available ones are not adequate to take up all those yearning for higher education.
