Emphasizing the importance of practical education, Alausa underscored the need to address youth unemployment by partnering with the private sector to equip students with relevant skills. He stressed that tertiary institutions should focus on producing job-ready graduates, not just increase the annual number of graduates.

However, he was firm that the government will uphold its decision to void over 22,700-degree certificates obtained by Nigerians from unaccredited universities in neighboring Togo and Benin Republic. 

Additionally, Alausa highlighted plans to empower agricultural universities to adopt commercial farming practices, addressing Nigeria's food security challenges while providing students with hands-on experience.
