Truly the authorities really need to take a hard second look at the Nigerian educational system. I will check out the link you provided.

This has resulted in lack of access to quality higher education for millions of youths in the country with negative implications for the country's development. An effort is being made by a Nigerian doctoral researcher in one of UK's top universities to help the Nigerian government with a road map that will deal with the problem from the root and possibly revolutionize higher education practice in the country at a cost the country can afford. This is, however, an effort by a self-sponsored Nigerian which is yet to benefit from any grant from the relevant education agencies and philanthropists in the country thereby jeopardizing the possibility of the country benefiting from this important research which is too cost intensive for a scholar to handle from his private resources as this researcher is trying to do because of his desire to help his country solve a major development problem. PTDF will do well to step in with their help urgently at: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/access-to-education-for-disadvantaged-young-people (latest September 30, 2015) so that the project is not truncated. The multiplier effect of the project when successfully completed will see Nigeria implementing a development-provoking education model other countries will compete to emulate.
