The line in bold is patently untrue. Where did you fabricate this £90,000 from? (That's ~ N27m )

Na wa. Why tell tales that many people here can disprove with first hand experience?

If the amount of money spent sponsoring these guys in foreign institutions is spent upgrading our universities, Nigerian universities will be the best in Africa.

Do we know how much we're talking about here? You need a minimum of £90,000 to train an international student for a BSc programme in the UK. Multiply this amount by 6,000 (approx Nos of ex militants in foreign institutions) and you will get the ridiculous, frightening amount being wasted.

By the way, 90% of the so called ex militants are enjoying lavish lifestyles in the UK and the US; another 65% are don't even know how to spell their names (hope you get my drift ).

If I'm to advise GMB, get these guys to write examination here in Nigeria and anyone who scores below an acceptable band should be withdrawn from his foreign institution and thrown back to the creeks. I hope GMB reads this

Yes what he said is true 90000 pounds for a low rubbish UK school excluding living expenses. To attend cambridge cost as much as 56000 pounds a year that's almost 220000 pounds for a degree program.

Mogidi, the story is not correct The Daura President will not be penny wise pound foolish.

mmsen:


£20,000 per year for fees. (£60,000)

£10,000 per annum for living expenses. (£30,000)

That figure sounds about right.

Mogidi:
When they stop paying ya fees its time to stop the oil flow.

Atlantian:
Not up to £20,000 per year, about $12,000 per year and £7,000 for living expenses. You guys are just speculating. But for a region that provides billions for the entire country, this is just too little to ask for after years of neglect. I hope the pipelines and oil wells get blown up though.

It's the truth, you think £90,000 is just tuition, what about housing, feeding and other expenses for 3 or 4 years. Real education is expensive!

WETIN BE THERE OWN SELF NIGER DELTA EVERY WERE. Na only Niger Delta dey Nigeria. i beg make unna come back home come dey fish jooo

mmsen:


No, I'm not.

I know because those are the fees for overseas students in the UK.

Cambridge fees for Chemical Engineering are at least 20,000 (to be precise they're 22,000)

Fees for law are £15,000 - those are the lowest.

For the colleges of University of London fees are similar.

Maybe places like Coventry fees are less.

Whichever way you look at it, Nigeria is wasting money enriching other nations instead of using its resources to build its own institutions - it's completely farcical.

If all the Nigerians, Chinese and Indians stopped patronizing UK universities, most of those places would turn into ABU overnight.

Truckpusher:
It's as simple as that and Buhari must get whatever he is looking for I swear.

The Federal Government has spent billions of naira sponsoring Northern students to overseas since independence after hijacking admissions from all the federal colleges through quota system ,this Buhari and his free loading bunch of Northern leaches didn't deem it fit to stop such scheme.


This nation will fall apart faster than anticipated if this mad Fulani man continue in this aimless direction that reeks of nothing but hatred and oppression.

bushdoc9919:

Well....fees cost 8000-12000 pounds per annum.
Living costs could be anywhere between 650-1400 monthly....which is 7800-16200 per annum.
For a three year Undergraduate course....that amounts to.....72600 -86400 pounds in total.(And if the young one wants to do a Masters....add 12-18000 pounds to that cost in fees....plus expenses...and you will get over the 90000 pounds).
So...very very costly.

£56,000 sounds a bit high.

It costs 35,000 to study medicine at Cambridge. Living expenses, whilst still high, are not as bad as London.

£45,000 per year for the five years, plus your two of clinical training.

Konjour:


Regardless of what you're studying for under Tier 4, you'd be spending a minimum sum of £9,600 - £12,000 on your upkeep per year (i.e about

3 - 3.8 million naira per year). If you're on a 3 year programme, that's somewhere around £30,000. If you're on a 4 year course, that extends

to about £40,000 - £45,000. You'd spend roughly the same sum on your tuition in terms of an average figure, but this varies largely from

course to course/university to university.

Having said that, I don't agree that £90,000 is the minimum that will be required. It is a moderate figure. You can spend quite less than that.

You can also end up spending much more than that.
