DON ADVOCATES REGISTRATION SYSTEM

Don advocates compulsory birth and death registration system. Professor Adekule Eludire has called on the Federal Government of Nigeria to make birth and death registration a compulsory task as the current challenges of free fair election in our society could best be viewed against structural setting emanating primarily from the inefficiency associated with registration perspective of voters. Eludire made the call while delivering the Joseph Ayo Babalola University‘s 8th Inaugural Lecture on the topic “1+1=1: Simple Formula for Solving Complex Problems” held at the Oba Oladele Olashore Auditorium of Joseph Ayo Babalola University. The erudite scholar of Computer Science reiterated that it would be worthwhile if the education agencies collaborate with universities to fund researches on e-learning and virtual classroom rather than spend money on constructing classrooms that would never be adequate for the ever increasing population. Citing him, “the Nigerian Government should declare a national emergency on the provision of abundant electricity for the nation as it is the basic infrastructure needed to achieve super-high way in the area of information technology or technology for other uses”.
