N75,00O paid in federal tertiary institutions.
The Chairman of the panel , Prof. Chinedu Nebo , former Vice Chancellor of University of Nigeria,Enugu
Campus, who made these revelations yesterday while submitting the panel’s report to governor Hope Uzodinma,
also submitted that it was inconceivable that quality tertiary education could be received free.
The panel pointed out that the free education programme run by former administration was a sham that watered
down the quality of education because the best brains in the profession were not attracted.
The panel noted that accreditation was denied many faculties in the Institution like Medicine and surgery for
many years, pointing out that of all the abandoned projects littering the institution , the mother of them all was the
Medical school
They recommended that for IMSU to produce graduates that are nationally relevant and globally competitive it
must adopt the entrepreneurial model of education., among other things .The panel also suggested a
reintroduction of tuition fees which they pegged at N90,000 as against N75,00O paid in federal tertiary
institutions.
