These factors include poor quality intake to universities, bad management, sorting, examination malpractice, enrolment overload, cultism, etc. The study has discussed these factors and make suggestions to eliminate them. When this happens and funding is improved, education in Nigeria will resume its previous glory and contribute meaningfully to economic growth. ER -
