Speaking with newsmen, he said, “We have the tendency of misinterpreting concepts. NOUN is not meant for regular students. It is not meant for anybody that has just finished his secondary education. NOUN is a flexible programme meant for adults – the working class. It is for people who have sufficient experience, but want academic knowledge and certificates to back up what they are doing.”
According to him, “NOUN got it wrong when they started admitting students that are JAMB drop outs — people who are unable to go to conventional universities through JAMB and also fresh secondary school graduates. Automatically, they would be agitating that they want to serve, after all, they are graduates.”
