NIGERIA: Retirement age for professors rises to 70
30.08.2010
Professors will now stay longer in universities after Nigeria's federal government pushed back the national mandatory retirement age from 65 to 70, reports "Next". Non-academic staff also received a further five years after the government increased their retirement age to 65.Briefing journalists, the minister of state for information and communications, Labaran Maku, said this was meant to show respect to all the agreements the government entered into with educational unions.
Nigerian universities are suffering from staff shortages, struggling to replace an ageing academic workforce due to factors such as the brain drain and their inability to compete with private sector salaries.
