The co-chairman and coordinator of impact assessment ad hoc committee of TETFund interventions in tertiary institutions, Nazifi Abdullahi Darma, a professor of Development Economics at the University of Abuja said ,Monday that the three ad hoc committees inaugurated by the Executive Secretary of Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund), are working round the clock in order to achieve result at the end of their assignments.
Professor Darma stated this in an exclusive interview with Blueprint Newspapers, Monday in Abuja.
He said many are of the opinion that the committees are not doing anything because of information lapses between the committees and the general public.
“As part of reinvigorating forces, Professor Bogoro inaugurated the three committees in order to refurbish TETFund towards achieving its mandate of quality education in Nigeria’s tertiary schools.
“Number one is the issue of technical advisory group which is the highest intellectual decision making body. Number two is book development committee, and research and development committee, which my co-chairman, professor Placid Njoku, now the deputy governor-elect of Imo state, chairs.
“The third committee is technical technical action committee on impact assessment of TETfund interventions in 20 years.
“What we have done so far is enough but because of lack of publicity, some people may be constrained to think we have not been doing anything,” Darma said.
