This book provides critical insights into two of the most important structures of national life. Higher education is the life blood of any nation without which development eludes the citizenry while good governance contributes to the sustenance and sustainability of nation building. The overriding objective of the book is to bring together a number of distinguished scholars, experts and opinion moulders who have very rich understanding and broad knowledge on the subject matter and have provided both critical and insightful positions on how to chart the way forward. It is a truism that the country faces some of its most critical challenges in its chequered history. Government and private sector intervention in education has recorded little impact and it appears that very little can be done to mitigate this challenge; yet here is a challenge that must be tackled to mediate development. In the same vein, the task of good governance in many sectors of the economy pushes us to avoid pitfalls and to achieve development; there must be some level of attitudinal changes and emphasis on institutional strengthening. It is based on these that this volume has been compiled.
