Japa: Over 10,000 Nigerian students in Australia

Mr Matthew Mechan, Deputy High Commissioner, Australia, Australian High Commission, says not less than 10,000 Nigerian students have been given admissions in Australian universities between 2015 and 2019.

According to him, the process went seamlessly before the coronavirus pandemic interruptions.The two-day event, which started with a gala night on Friday, was organised to celebrate and strengthen educational links between Nigeria and Australia.

Mechan said the study fair was a relaunch aimed at adopting a wholistic approach toward closing the vacuum created by the pandemic for better ties with Nigeria. He noted that Australia had a target of restoring the growth index for more Nigerian students to study in Australia’s adventurous and relaxed learning environment.

According to him, consistently, Australian cities like Melbourne had been rated first or second most livable cities on the planet by the Economist for the last decade. Mr Mohammed Bassi, House Committee Chairman, Nigerian-Australian Parliamentary Friendship Group in the House of Representatives, commended the organisers of the fair and the networking meeting, describing it as a good development.
