NAAT tasks Buhari on well-equipped varsities

President of the union, Sani Suleiman, in a statement lamented that no nation can achieve technological greatness without standardized teaching equipment and a favourable learning environment.
Suleiman said “NAAT …would like to inform you (Buhari) that one major area that yearns for positive change is the education sector – particularly the university system. There is so much decay in the university system calling for attention to reverse the trend for the better.
“As a result of the importance of technological education for development of any nation, we sincerely urge you to pay attention to the following aspects among others, as you take the governance of Nigeria state from May 29, 2015; providing laboratories, workshops and studios with modern state-of-the-art equipment and training and re-training of technologists to effectively handle modern equipment and keep pace with new technologies in performing their responsibility of practical teaching and demonstration.”
