The visit is part of the Minister’s broader strategy to enforce uniform standards and foster excellence across unity colleges nationwide.
Dr. Alausa, who shared a video of his visit on his official X handle, emphasized the importance of equitable education, stating: “I’m currently at Queens College conducting an unannounced inspection. Our goal is to ensure that all of our federal schools and unity colleges are operating transparently and maintaining equitable standards for all students.”
The inspection included interactions with staff, a tour of the facilities, and a thorough review of the school’s compliance with federal educational policies.
Dr. Alausa’s approach aims to address challenges head-on while fostering an environment where students and educators can thrive.
This initiative highlights the federal government’s commitment to revitalizing Nigeria’s educational framework. By conducting surprise visits, the Minister is not only assessing current standards but also demonstrating a zero-tolerance stance toward lapses in educational quality.
