When was the first time the vision of establishing a private university was conceived? PCU is just coming on board; but why do you think the existing private universities have not been able to effectively solve the problem of access to university education? The deficit was huge before the private universities came on board, and the coming of the private universities is reducing the deficit and providing quality education. There have been complaints that faith-based universities don’t cater to the interest of members, as they cannot afford to send their children there. And don’t forget also (that) the building of a private university is not a chicken game; it’s huge.
