The Chairman of the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria, (MAN),  Kwara/Kogi chapter and Chairman of KAM Industries Nig. Ltd, Dr. Kamorudeen Yusuf, has called on the  National Universities Commission, (NUC)  and other regulatory agencies in the education sectors to give more priority to science oriented courses.

Yusuf stated this while delivering an address at the annual symposium of the American Chemical Society, (ACS) Nigeria chapter held at the auditorium of the University of Ilorin.

He said, “Here is an urgent need for the federal government through the NUC to give more priority to science related courses during admission process. This should be done in the ratio 70 to 30 percentage for both sciences and non-sciences respectively.”

This he said would further ensure the need for entrepreneurial skills among our teeming youths and fast track the desired growth for the nation.
