Prof. Osinbajo spoke yesterday in Abuja, the nation’s capital, at the first national tertiary admissions performance merit award organised by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board .
He said: “The nation’s curriculum should be aggressively refocused on diversifying the economy towards knowledge-based and driven on development of solid minerals, sports and tourism and small scale enterprises. The Vice-President said the effort of the board at ensuring that tertiary institutions perform excellently in access to institutions was commendable.
“This administration is proud of the achievements of the board, particularly its unique contributions to the Federation Account since 2017 and its re-invigorated efforts in frontally confronting examination malpractices and protecting the integrity of its examinations and the results awarded to candidates.
“Working together in unison with common purpose is key to our nation’s developmental efforts. Let us continue to partner positively together,” Osinbajo said.
The country's curriculum for tertiary institutions should be completely overhauled to meet current advancements. Just some weeks back, a 500level Electrical Engineering student in our top 5 FedUNI was being taught the principle of operation of black and white TV in class.
