The Federal Government has reiterated it’s commitment to ensuring that public tertiary institutions in the country comply with regulatory guidelines on school fees charges.
The Minister of Education, Malam Ibrahim Shekarau, said this in his opening remarks at a meeting with executive secretaries and major stakeholders in public tertiary institutions on Tuesday in Abuja.
According to Shekarau, the federal government will not interfere with operations of governing councils of such institutions but will play its oversight role.
Shekarau said that the Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) of the institutions would be looked into in their deliberations.
The National Universities Commission (NUC), National Board for Technical Education (NBTE), National Commission for Colleges of Education (NCCE), among others, were represented at the meeting. (NAN)
