ANAMBRA STATE TERTIARY INSTITUTIONS

A CALL FOR URGENT REFORMS

Abstract

This paper examined Anambra State tertiary institutions with a view to call for urgent reforms. This paper identified poor funding, amongst others as problems facing tertiary institutions in the state. Tertiary institutions are affected with inadequacies in terms of teaching and learning materials, electrical supply, water, amongst others. Based on these problems, there is an urgent need to call on all stakeholders involved in tertiary education to join hands together in putting an end to these problems. To this end, this paper therefore recommends that the state government should increase her annual budgetary allocation to tertiary education. All stakeholders in tertiary institutions should put hands together to formulate favourable policies and programmes aimed at revitalizing tertiary education in the state amongst others.
