    The Federal Government says the 115 Federal Unity Colleges (FUCs) in the country will soon be unbundled into basic and secondary schools.

    The Minister of State for Education, Dr Yusuf Sununu made this known during the opening of the Annual General Meeting of Principals of Unity Colleges in Abuja on Tuesday.

    The event has the theme: ”Entrepreneurship Education: A Panacea for Self-Reliance and National Development”.

    Sununu said the plan to unbundle the unity colleges was in line with the National Policy on Education (NPE).

    The Minister explained that the unbundling of Federal Unity Colleges would among other things attract more funding to improve infrastructure, address teachers’ welfare and create employment opportunities, among others.

    He added that the Ministry, with the support from relevant agencies of government, would ensure it was achieved in the shortest possible time.

    “I want to emphasise the significance of fostering an entrepreneurial spirit in our youths, a spirit that will propel them toward self-reliance and contribute meaningfully to our nation’s development.

    “Unemployment remains a pressing concern, and it is our collective responsibility to equip our students with the skills and mindset necessary to succeed.

    “Entrepreneurship education offers a solution to this challenge as it prepares students to think creatively, innovatively, and develop the confidence to take calculated risks,” he said.

    Sununu called for the collaboration of the Principals as critical stakeholders to improve the educational landscape of the schools.

    He further urged them to curb social vices, instill the maintenance culture in the students and cooperate with their host communities for the overall security and growth of the Colleges.
