Dele Momodu is making his thoughts about the university admission age requirement known.
On August 26, President Bola Tinubu's administration mandated that only individuals aged 18 and above could take the National Examination Council Nigeria (NECO) and West African Examination Council (WAEC) exams.
This angered some people who questioned what students who typically graduate from secondary school at the age of 15/16 should do with their time while waiting to be old enough for the university entrance exams.
Dele Momodu has now weighed in.
The Ovation Magazine publisher highlighted the story of Dr Dorothy Jean Tillman, who, at only 17, became the youngest person to earn a doctoral degree in integrated behavioural health from Arizona State University's College of Health Solutions.
"And Federal Government via Ministry of Education is saying Nigeria children should wait till 18 years before they write WAEC, NECO and JAMB," Momodu pointed out on Instagram.
