\n

The Committee of Vice-Chancellors of Nigerian Universities, CVCNU, has pointed out inadequate funding as one of the major challenges militating against effective growth and global ranking of public universities in Nigeria.
\nThe Secretary-General of CVCNU, Prof. Yakubu Ochefu, said this on Thursday in Abuja at a \u201cWorkshop for Advancement and Alumni Officers.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said there was the need for cost-sharing based on what was needed to train a student in the university.<\/p>\n

The event which had the theme: \u201cInstitutional Advancement, Alumni Relations and University Education in Nigeria\u201d was organised by CVCNU in partnership with the Conference of Alumni Association of Nigerian Universities, CAANU.<\/p>\n

He revealed that the committee was able to bring out figures about what was needed to train a student in a university, including public universities.<\/p>\n

According to him, there were still gaps in the cost-sharing ratio between the government and the individual student.<\/p>\n

He pointed out that to train one medical student in a university takes about N5 billion.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo train one medical student in a university costs about N5 billion, even in the public university, it costs about N5 billion. So what is the cost-sharing ratio between government and individuals in public universities?<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, if the government wants to take responsibility for the training of the student, it should pay the 5 billion naira so the university can use it to run its operations. You cannot give a Vice-Chancellor N3 million and say go and manage,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
