Abstract

The higher education system in any country is established to function as the last clearing house for the sharpening of the cognitive and affective domains of the young and adult learners before they are saddled with governance or leadership responsibilities from both the private and the public sectors. Therefore, the teachers’ enclave in the higher education system of any country cannot be open to all comers. The opening up of the teaching profession to all and sundry is one of the major causes of the unbridled corruption that the education system has recorded in recent times in Nigeria. Therefore, the paper was concern with how students-lecturer corruption could be reduced in Nigeria. Data for the study was obtained from secondary materials and from unstructured interviews with experts in education. The paper comprehensively exposes the characteristics of called and uncalled teachers and it concludes that until there is a drastic reduction of the uncalled teachers the Nigerian education system cannot reduce the current high level of corruption. Therefore, it recommends among others that, a ban on the employment of retired or sacked people from the private and public sectors as lecturers without prior degree in education before they start their working life should be instituted
