Don faults high tuition in high tuition

The Registrar of the Joseph Sarwuan Tarka University, Makurdi, Benue State, Dr John David, has decried the high tuition charged by universities owned by churches, making it difficult for children of their members to attend.

David also berated the current situation in the education sector in the country, lamenting that the value of education is gradually being devalued due to the alleged commercialisation of education in the country.

He stated this in a lecture he delivered on Saturday, ahead of the 11th and 12th combined convocation of Wesley University, Ondo, Ondo State.

The lecture was titled, ‘Early church fathers as panacea for sustainable development in Nigeria.’
