    "content": "IMPROVEMENT OF EDUCATION STANDARDS IN MARGINALISED REGIONS THAT, being aware of the important role education plays in the development of any country; noting with grave concern that admission for undergraduate courses at public universities has become extremely competitive and, therefore, thousands of students who have attained minimum qualifications are shut out from university education; taking cognizance of the fact that students who come from marginal areas have continued to have less access to public universities thereby re-enforcing the marginalisation of such areas, this House urges the Government to urgently consider: (a) putting up more schools with requisite facilities in marginal areas; (b) offering sufficient bursary to cover tuition fees for the needy students who hail from marginal areas; and (c) establishing one public university in Coast, Eastern and North Eastern provinces as a means of stimulating local interest in university education."
