Alex Onyia on TETFund allocation to UNN
Despite reportedly receiving a recent N2.56 billion TETFund allocation, the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) appears to have made little visible improvement to its male hostels, according to education consultant Alex Onyia.
Onyia shared the information alongside a photo of the hostel, showing the gap between the funding received and the state of infrastructure.
“Here’s the recent TETFund allocation for UNN (N2.56 billion).
Look at what they achieved with it in Male hostel.
It’s a shame!”

The photo, which quickly circulated online, has sparked outrage among students, alumni, and education stakeholders, prompting calls for urgent intervention to improve facilities at the prestigious university.
