Speaker Tajudeen Abbas has called for the implementation of common and standardised examinations across universities and a complete overhaul of outdated curricula that align with global realities and industry demands.
The Speaker stated this when he delivered the convocation lecture of the Federal University of Technology, Minna.
He noted that the absence of a standardised examination framework in universities has led to inconsistencies in academic standards and graduate outcomes.
The Speaker also highlighted the outdated curriculum prevalent in universities, which fails to equip graduates with relevant technical and vocational skills adding that several Nigerian university graduates face the challenges of employability at the global job market due to the lack of alignment of the curriculum with industry requirements.
