The All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been accused by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) of having Nigerians alleged nonchalance in funding tertiary education.

Deji Omole, the chairman of ASUU, University of Ibadan chapter, on Monday, April 2, made the accusation. Omole said that this is true going by the refusal of the APC to inject revitalisation fund into public varsity education in the country to help students enjoy qualitative education, Vanguard reported.

He said only the former president, Goodluck Jonathan injected N200 billion for the revitalisation of public varsities after the 2013 six-month strike action. He said: “Public Universities are grossly underfunded leading to serious pressure on the available resources which have been stressed beyond elastic limits.
