President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has signed into law two bills establishing new federal universities in Osun and Ekiti States, reinforcing his administration’s commitment to expanding access to quality higher education and enhancing scientific and technological advancement.

On Thursday in Abuja, Tinubu assented to the Federal University of Agriculture and Development Studies, Iragbiji, Osun State and the Federal University of Technology and Environmental Sciences, Iyin Ekiti, Ekiti State.

Speaking on the significance of these institutions, the President stated, “These specialised institutions will address the educational needs of the populace while driving research and innovation and contributing to the country’s overall economic growth and development.”

He further emphasized that the universities would serve as training hubs for professionals in agriculture, science, and technology, boosting Nigeria’s competitiveness in the global economy.

According to the National Universities Commission (NUC), Nigeria currently has 63 federal universities, 63 state universities, and 149 private universities. With the addition of these new institutions, the federal government aims to bridge educational gaps, promote research, and foster economic development.

In addition to these approvals, Tinubu had earlier, on February 3, 2025, approved the establishment of the Federal University of Environment and Technology (FUET) in Ogoni town, Tai, Rivers State.

He also consented to the federal government’s takeover of a forfeited private university in Southern Kaduna, converting it into a federal institution.
