The Vice Chancellor of Crescent University, Abeokuta, Prof. Ibrahim Gbajabiamila, has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to declare a state of emergency in the education sector.
Speaking at a press conference to mark the 10th year anniversary of the institution, the VC stated that the education sector has been neglected for too long.
Gbajabiamila said the only solution to the decay is the declaration of a state of emergency because the country cannot continue to tackle the sector with the same approach that created the problem.
He stressed that Nigeria is in short supply of about 30,000 PhD holders with many of them abroad. This is adversely affecting the efficiency of tertiary institutions in the country.
He added that Crescent University was established as an intervention institution that would combine academic excellence with moral uprightness.
The vice chancellor, however listed the challenges facing the institution to include power generation and access road.
