The silly hypocrite twitter clown in one breath shouts buy naija to grow naija while in another breath is advocating foreign bough education and exportation of our critical Forex.


What's the idea here? We should promote our own local products , but never our educational institutions?

If UI, OAU, UNN and other notable UNI in Nigeria are not good enough for you, source your own foreign bought education funds..


Unpatriotic losers..

Education in all forms, and I mean ALL FORMS is absolutely non-negotiable.

Read the senators points again and tell me you have something better . . .

As we speak, there over 700,000 students from the US, UK, Russia, Germany, Thailand, France, and e.t.c in China, Singapore, studying.

Millions of students from all over the world in the UK, the US, France, Australia, Canada, Russia, Germany, and e.t.c. foreign education is a form of education no-country can do without, it's actually highly encouraged; mind you, this parents are not even asking for sponsorship, all they ask for is, to be able to pay 199 to a dollar, the same dollar they used to pay N120-N155 to a dollar for at the time some of their wards enrolled.
Is that too much to ask for when Dangote could get funds for foreign factories, the senators could get up to $100,000 each for some extra imported cars?!

Some countries pay up to $30,000 to their citizens who are willing to go study abroad . . . even though we can't do that now, is accessing Forex at the official rate to much too ask for?

Not to mention a good percentage of those foreign students would not even consider foreign education if there were no ASUU, NASUU, NLC, and whatever strikes -- making the victims pay for the failures of government.

[s]Yours and the twitter clow senators point remains mute and redundant because of our economic situation and realities.

When you are broke and poor, you have to make prudent financial judgements and spend what you have wisely and judiciously. You don't ignore the day old bread in your house in favor of more expensive and freshly baked bread down the street.


Also, the countries you listed and compared with Nigeria are not Nigeria, we are not in the same boat and we are not facing the same economic realities, their treasury was not looted dry and funds stolen and shared from top to bottom, they are not in dire need of basic infrastructures like Nigeria and so on and on.

That comparison was baseless and utterly not well applied..

We should keep our money here here and be spending more money on our own education system in Nigeria and also promote our own institutions instead of promoting foreign education at the expense of our own struggling institutions.


It is hypocrisy to in one breath shouting keep our money in Naija and in another breath advocating we ship our now valuable forex to foreign entities.

Besides, they are not saying you can not by your foreign education, all they are saying is source your foreign education on your own and not at the expense of struggling Nigerians and our battered economy.[/s]

Mr Bruce, here is my question;

[s]Can you name a country in the world where it's the responsibility of government to help the citizens look for forex to pursue a foreign expedition when such could be easily sourced locally?


Common sense is not actually common.[/s]
