Politics and Private Sector Participation in University Education: Nigeria’s Historical Peculiarities, 1983-2017

Journal Title: International Journal of Research and Review - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 3

Abstract

Traditionally, politics is guided by the traits of interests and intrigues. This paper historically examines whether the political intrigues that beclouded the establishment of private universities in Nigeria in any way distorted educational and national interests. The paper submits that the development of private universities suffered a setback owing to the kind of politics that circumvented the initial efforts. It therefore advocates that government and the political class must eschew self-serving political interest in order to realize the potentials in private-sector participation for the development of university education in Nigeria.
