尼日利亚参议院对教育部长关于一项将大学入学年龄限制在16岁或18岁的已知法律的主张提出异议, Nigeria's Senate disputes the Education Minister's claim on a known law restricting university admission age to 16 or 18, stating the issue hasn't been legislated yet. 部长最初将2024年的入境年龄定为18岁,但在抗议之后,这一年龄降至16岁。 The minister had initially set the 2024 admission age at 18, but after protests, it was reduced to 16. 批评者认为,该政策规定六年小学、三年初中和三年高中教育,导致父母在幼年时将子女推入中学。 Critics argue that the policy, which mandates six years of primary, three years of junior, and three years of senior secondary education, has led to parents pushing their children into secondary schools at a young age.
