  Nigeria stands at a critical juncture, grappling with an endemic system crisis that permeates the very fabric of our society.

This decision has raised concerns about the implications for the country's educational system and the prospects of its youth. Critics argue that this policy is not only regressive but also indicative of a broader failure within Nigeria's educational infrastructure.   Systemic Failures and Regressive Mentality The imposition of an age restriction for university admission has been widely viewed as a symptom of systemic failures within Nigeria's education sector. In a rapidly evolving world that values early education and skills development, this policy sends a message that Nigerian youth should be held back in their academic pursuits.
