Association warns of looming varsity crisis, demands federal reforms

The Association of Nigerian Universities Alumni (ANUA) has raised concerns over an imminent crisis across the nation’s universities.

 

This is contained in a statement issued

at the end of its Special Bi-Annual Delegates Conference held in Bauchi State and made available to newsmen in Abuja on Tuesday by its Public Relations Officer, Mallam Sulehiun Maccido.

 

Maccido quoted ANUA National President, Prof. Yakubu Ochefu to have

urged the Federal Government to take swift action to prevent another wave of industrial unrest in the tertiary education sector.

 

Ochefu also demanded an amendment to existing university laws to grant Alumni Association Presidents statutory representation on University Governing Councils.

 

He warned that the country’s higher education system could not afford another disruption.

 

“Nigeria’s academic calendar cannot afford another disruption. We call on the federal government to prioritise negotiations with university-based unions and ensure lasting peace in the sector,” Ochefu stated.

 

He noted that alumni must transition from being “passive observers to active partners” in the revitalisation of Nigeria’s universities, emphasising that institutional transformation requires collective responsibility.

 

Resolution from the conference was a concern over chronic underfunding, decaying facilities, and limited carrying capacity, warning that these systemic challenges threaten national development and human capital growth.

 

The body also announced plan to convene a National Education Summit in 2026, bringing together policymakers, academics, the private sector, and civil society to craft a 21st-century roadmap for Nigerian universities.
