The vice chancellor of the University of Ilorin, Prof. Wahab Egbewole (SAN) has warned against the notions of confusing teaching with learning, saying years of wrong indoctrination to believing that only schools can offer education are gone.

Egbewole who also down played the notion that skills and knowledge acquisition are only reliable if it is formally acquired in a traditional school setting posited that a lot of incalculable damage had been done to attaining quality education in Nigeria such that a total overhaul of the system is now urgently required to put the rot in order.

He, therefore, called for the reinvention of Nigeria’s school curriculum, as part of the solutions to rejuvenating standards in the nation’s education system.

The Prof. of Law spoke yesterday, while delivering the 7th convocation lecture of  the Federal University Oye-Ekiti, FUOYE Ekiti State titled ;”Learning is Schooling Plus”.

He declared that a good number of graduates are displaying certificates they either can not defend, or match with character and creativity.

According to him, “ The goal of education should be to generate compassionate and creative students who will contribute to the development and maintenance of a just society.

“Some of our educational institutions have produced graduates who compare favourably with their peers in other parts of the world and are making waves, but it is also true that they have produced graduates who have not measured up to standard.

“ We are familiar with the stories of graduates who allegedly are unable to write ordinary application letters for unemployment”, he said.

Stating further, Egbewole said” There are also instances where some are unable to identify the core issues in the courses they studied, talk less of explaining them

“There are also cases of graduates who are so educationally vapid, to the extent that they are adjudged not to be trainable, and therefore, not employable,” he said.
