โœฆ Synopsis

The development of higher education in Nigeria over the past quarter of a century has been characterized by a high degree of proliferation and dispersal. In the distribution of universities there exists a cautious state of balance among the former regional components of the country. Variation is much more marked in the distribution of other categories of institutions of higher education. Perhaps of greater significance is the concentration of these institutions in towns and cities. Economic, social, and political reasons are accountable for the observed pattern. There are also enormous benefits as well as problems resulting from the proliferation and dispersal of higher education institutions.
