To this effect, the NUC has set up a committee to among other ends, come up with advice on the ranking of Nigerian universities.

“This committee has started working and it is under the chairmanship of Prof. Peter Okebukola, former Executive Secretary of NUC; with Prof. Attahiru Jega, former Vice-Chancellor and former Chairman of INEC, among others, as members,” the NUC scribe stated.

He went further to state that in the next six weeks, the NUC is expecting to receive the first report which, among other things, will help advise the commission on the best way to carry out proposed curricular review in the county and to advise on the ranking of universities.

“We always wake up every morning and see on the social media that the NUC has ranked (universities). The NUC has not ranked any university in several years. We have not done it, but people just sit down to create it,” he said.
