TEACHING OF ECONOMICS IN NIGERIAN VARSITIES TO BE OVERHAULED

An overhaul of university economics teaching will begin next year in answer to critics who argue that academics failed to spot the 2008 crash because they ignored the impact of financial markets and relied on outdated theories. A new first year curriculum will be available from the start of the 2014 academic year, which will include an in-depth review of economic history, and a look at the way financial markets can undermine economic stability.
