We can\u2019t be giving free money to institutions that are not doing what they are supposed to do.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn terms of the skill, we want to raise the equipment level of those institutions, polytechnic and others so that they can provide all the skill set that we need in Nigeria in the highest quality that can service the country and internationally,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>On his part, the Executive Secretary of TETFund, Arc Sonny Echono, said the fund will not continue to throw money away to centres that are not living up to expectations.<\/p>\n<p>Echono disclosed that some centres have funds with TETFund that they have not accessed since inception.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe funds are with us because we have not released until you reach a milestone, but while they have delayed in reaching those milestones, are causes of concerns.<\/p>\n<p>The TETFund boss noted that the strategy for establishing centres of excellence was a very good one because TETFund realised that it didn\u2019t have enough resources to improve all the facilities of all public institutions at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe idea was to incubate, to have one centre, the right equipment, the right tools, the right faculty and experts, that would lead our efforts in research, in promoting scholarship at the highest level so that they can also inspire other centres.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are going to be pooling from other institutions within the area who want to do further research or who want to carry out any other exploratory study in those particular fields in those areas,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He said some of the centres have done fantastically well since inception, stating that a lot of them are doing innovations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSokoto just came up with one major solution for us. For example, they were the ones that discovered this vaccine for Covid, in partnership with other institutions. Now we are also in the process of getting vaccines for Lassa fever and so many others.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, some are doing very well. And some have come up with prototypes that we now hoping to take to industries so that they begin to produce these goods and services,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>On the non-performing institutions, he said, \u201cIf you were established five years ago and you are still at your infancy, you have not been able to provide modern laboratories, facilities for scholars to come and learn, we want to know why. But we don\u2019t want to be arbitrary.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, it decided to look at some institutions to find out their relative positions in terms of the quality of their faculty, their reputation in certain courses and in certain areas and designated them as centres of excellence for those particular courses.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, the Committee on the Assessment\/Review of TETFund Centres of Excellence, led by Prof Oyewale Tomori, in its report, decline to recommend any centre for upgrade<\/p>\n<p>The report noted that most centres did not utilise their first seed grant of N150 million for the initial infrastructures required in the centres, and advised TETFund to provide some bail out funds to the centres to enable the proper take off of the centres.<\/p>\n<p>The committee also called on the fund to ensure that all funds for the Centre of Excellence are disbursed directly to the Centre of excellence account.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf the Centres are to achieve set objectives, TETFund in collaboration with institutions hosting the centres should ensure that Centre Directors are on full time assignment at the Centre.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll Centres that are not performing well should be given six months moratorium as a way to prevail on them to refocus and achieve their true mandate after which a revisit will be conducted to determine their status and continue funding,\u201d the committee recommended.<\/p>\n<p>Also presenting the Report of the Advisory Committee on Operationalisation of TETFund Skills Development Special Intervention, the Chairman of the Committee, Dr. Nuru Yakubu, said the committee recommended polytechnics for TETFund Special Intervention according to zones.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSouth-West: The five schools visited have shown preparedness except for the Polytechnic Ibadan because of the school leadership transition. It is therefore recommended that in 2024 the following two polytechnics should benefit; Federal Polytechnic, Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State and Federal Polytechnic, Ede, Osun State for 2025 the committee recommends Federal Polytechnic, Ilaro, Ogun State and The Polytechnic Ibadan, if they can sort out their preparations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSouth-South: The committee recommends Port Harcourt Polytechnic, Rimuola, Rivers State, and Akwa Ibom State Polytechnic Ikot Osunaa for 2024 TETFund Special Intervention. For the year 2025, the committee recommends Delta State Polytechnic and another polytechnic to be identified<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSouth-East: The Institute of Management and Technology has been recommended for 2024 and for 2025, Abia State Polytechnic, Aba and Federal Polytechnic, Oko.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNorth-East: The committee recommends Federal Polytechnic, Bauchi and Ramat Polytechnic, Maiduguri for 2024 Intervention and Adamawa State Polytechnic and Tatari Ali Polytechnic for 2025.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNorth-West: 2024 Birnin Kebbi, Daura for 2025 Kano State Poly, Sokoto State Poly and North-Central: 2024 Nasarawa and for 2025 Lokoja and Ilorin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Executive Secretary of TETFund, Arc Sonny Echono, said the fund will not continue to throw money away to centres that are not living up to expectations.
