Many of those from the south east that voted for Peter Obi did so because he was the best option when compared to the other candidates…. The igbos did the same for Jonathan so it is not about tribalism….

Surprisingly that obidiensts didn't celebrate the rescue or release of the victims, rather they keep asking weird questions

In November 2020, a US citizen was kidnapped IN NIGERIA but was rescued WITHIN 96 HOURS by the US government. Trump was the president and despite the achievement, Americans still slammed him for rejoicing over something they believed should never have happened in the first instance. That's the American mentality that does not settle for less and it explains why they are a leading country in many ways. In Nigeria, it took Tinubu who earns billions of naira as president, over 55 days to rescue Nigerian children and adults kidnapped WITHIN NIGERIA and their supporters say we must rejoice and celebrate the president and the army for doing a "world class job'. That's another kind of mentality which explains why Nigeria is not progressing very well as a nation. But when you talk amd ask questions, these APC data boys will say "you are bitter".

Burkina Faso now requires all students seeking higher education abroad to obtain prior
Permission from the Ministry of Higher Education.

The government says this measure is to align overseas academic training with national development priorities and improve labor market reintegration.

The new policy adds an administrative layer for thousands of students, particularly those heading to popular destinations like France.

It follows other reforms like a mandatory 'patriotic immersion' program for new university students and the suspension of a major student union.

The decree, adopted during a Council of Ministers meeting, applies to all Burkinabè students intending to begin studies overseas, regardless of whether they are financed through government scholarships, private sponsorship, or personal funds.

According to the government, the measure is designed to enable the state to monitor academic training undertaken abroad, ensure it aligns with the country's current development vision, reduce potential social challenges after students return home, and improve their eventual integration into the domestic labor market.

The new policy introduces an additional administrative layer for thousands of Burkinabè students who each year seek opportunities at universities outside the country.

France remains one of the most popular destinations, with Campus France reporting that about 2,500 Burkinabè students were enrolled in French higher education institutions in 2022.

A broader shift in education policy

The new decree is the latest in a series of reforms that have expanded the Burkinabè state's role in shaping higher education under the country's transition authorities.

In May 2025, the government introduced a mandatory month-long "patriotic immersion" programme for students admitted after the baccalaureate examination, making participation a prerequisite for enrollment at public universities.

The initiative, which involved about 60,000 high school graduates, was presented as a civic training programme aimed at producing citizens committed to national service and prepared to defend the country as it battles a decade-long jihadist insurgency.

The government's oversight of the education sector has since extended beyond university admissions.

In May 2026, authorities suspended the activities of the General Union of Burkina Students (UGEB), one of the country's oldest and most influential student organizations, accusing it of "glorifying terrorism" after it criticized the military government's handling of the security crisis and shrinking civic freedoms.

The move drew criticism from rights groups, which argued it reflected a broader narrowing of civic space.

Against that backdrop, the new requirement for students to obtain government authorization before pursuing studies abroad further expands the state's influence over academic pathways.

According to Higher Education Minister Adjima Thiombiano, the policy is intended to enable the government to monitor overseas training in line with its national development vision, prevent potential social challenges after students return, and better prepare graduates for professional integration into Burkina Faso's economy.

The decree reflects a growing emphasis by Burkina Faso's transition government on strengthening state oversight across strategic sectors, including education.

Officials argue that closer coordination between the government and students studying abroad will help ensure that training received overseas meets national needs while reducing difficulties graduates may face when re-entering the country's labor market.

While the government has framed the decree as a tool for improving educational planning and national development, it also represents one of the clearest examples yet of the state's expanding role in shaping the academic pathways of Burkinabè students, both at home and overseas.

200k is not perfect for even a man with no dependant. It is just money to manage. People who are in abject poverty right now might think it is perfect until they get there and see that 200k for even a starter is not perfect.

Let's break it down

Starter must sha eat daily

1200 per meal is #3600 daily. Multiply by 30 That's #108,000 spent on food already. The remaining money for that guy to spend is 92k for one month.

Barbing twice a month is 3k

Transportation in Lagos to work and back daily is 3k, so in 30 days is 60k

Buying soap and toiletries for a month is like 10k .
Don't even talk about buying gas to cook food. You have to borrow to get things done and pay back with interest.

Is that what we call perfect?

I've not talked about saving monthly to pay up for house rent of 500k in Lagos o. There is not even room for that.

200k is not perfect for a single guy who has dependants. But he should take it up if he is not having a good job at the moment.
