Editor,Last year, the Government merged seven public institutions of higher learning. The objective, officials said, was t streamline public higher education with view to improving its quality and efficiency. That’s a positive step.However, the country also has and recognises private institutions of higher learning. My question is, what is the fate of students in these institutions?
