Standard of nation’s education not falling – Okebukola


Former Executive Secretary of the National Universities Commission, Prof. Peter Okebukola, on Monday said that the standard of the nation’s education system was not falling but is rather enhanced daily by the Commission.

Okebukola made the assertion while speaking with the News Agency of Nigeria on the sidelines of the Eighth Convocation and honorary award of doctorate degree of Caleb University, Imota, Lagos.

He said the current NUC Executive Secretary, Prof. Abubakar Rasheed, was on a revatilisation mission to improve quality in the university system and enhance standards.

According to him, the standards turned out yearly by the Commission are richer and higher in terms of scope than the previous year.
