Atiku will not handover federal universities to states; education will remain on concurrent list

We have noticed with dismay the mischievous misinterpretation of what the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, said at the plenary of the 62nd annual conference of the Nigerian Bar Association as it relates to education and how to address the crisis in the sector.

For the avoidance of doubt, Atiku did not say that he will handover Federal Universities to state governments if he is elected president come February next year.
