He explained that, though, he welcome healthy competition between the two, government must rise up and do the needful for the benefit of the Nigerian youths, especially those who can not afford the private universities.

The speaker also noted that if the country must reduce unemployment, the rising crime rate and youth restiveness in the country, the sector must be given adequate priority.

According to him, ” there is heavy prize to pay by any society that ignores the education of it’s youths. That is why government at all levels must take a deliberate steps towards adequate funding of our public Universities to ensure they compete favourably with the private ones in the country.
