• Students and Professors
find fulfilment only in their
theses and academic

• Competition for prestige
• Remote from the society
• Unconcerned with social

towards total extinction as
available data shows that it has
shrunk by more than 90% within
the last 45 years orchestrated by

the Lake Chad is a task that must

The way to go for working/productive synergy
• The issue of onwership can mar or make the relatisonhip,
so this must agreed to from the onset to ensure
sustainability.
• Academia need to adjust their system and give credence to innovative research so as to attract investment from the industries.
• The industries could establish their R & D department in the university for the industry and students
• Academia should promote multi-disciplinary approach to
research and learning within their communities.
• Employment policy between the academia and the
indsutries.
• There is need to establish confidence level that guarrantee
the business of the industries without jeopardising the
