Admision: FG Ban Some Set of Students Seeking Admision to Study Agric in Varsity - Adesewa - 02-01-2017 The Federal Government says it has henceforth banned the admission of students who do not have farming interests into its Universities of Agriculture.   Chief Audu Ogbeh, the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, said this at a stakeholders meeting with registrars and pro-Chancellors of the universities in Abuja on Tuesday.   He said the decision was to reposition the institutions with a view to involving youths in agriculture, training them to proffer solutions to the multi-faceted problems in the sector.   The minister, who expressed regrets that non-agriculture-based courses like engineering was being thought in the schools, directed that only agriculture-related disciplines be thought. Think JAMB and higher institution are to blame for poor students performance. How would a student apply for Micro-biology or Engineering and at placement such student will be given Agriculture?
