In Nigeria there's a book titled UNA NEVER C SOMETHING
My dear brothers and sisters, that book is trending currently.

Those who think education is expensive should try ignorance.

Now it's clear to everyone that the FG has been hugely subsidising education yet the ungrateful unpatriotic beneficiaries of this heavily subsidized education will immediately transfer the education overseas and still turn around to talk down on Nigeria. Smh. They will lose! You can not cheat Nigeria, Nigerian tax payers and go scot free.

Very soon, these FG schools will be charging cost reflective school fees while indigent students will get loans to pay it. Hardworking, brilliant indigent students will get 100% full scholarship and bond to serve for few years to repay so others behind them can get same scholarship.

The welfarist system of the state drove the nation into monumental debts and widespread multidimensional poverty that produced a largely mediocre set of unpatriotic graduates with entitlement mentality. Imagine generations raised on fuel subsidy, electricity subsidy, education subsidies, health subsidies, free money cash transfer of npower, ponzi schemes, crypto etc, yet they spend most time idling away on Twitter, NL and other social media platforms. That's a legion of generations of largely unproductive lot! It is not sustainable anymore as our debts keep mounting and more youths get used to easy and fast money.

Our universities will now be forced to go back to the days people know why they are in school and will face it squarely to come out with great grades. NUC should equally ban federal universities from admitting JAMB candidates who score less than 200. It's ridiculous that university of Calabar (UNICAL), at almost 50 years of its existence, admits failed JAMB candidates who score 140 How on earth should FG be subsidising the education of a mediocre student who scored 140 out of 400. That's a 35% fail score!Employers should think twice before hiring products from schools giving admission to such students UNICAL recruits for undergraduate study. It's a fraud to admit failed JAMB candidates into a govt university funded with tax payers money!

Everyone must do the right thing to return this nation back to her consistent winning ways. Parents will now take parenting serious because the era you born excess hoping that govt will feed, clothe , train and educate them for you is gone.
May God bless Nigeria for ever!Check my signature for free stuffs!

I disagree with you in the part of removing subsidy for education, fuel and other products. Many developed countries in the world do it for their citizens and even immigrants. Talking of getting loans to fund education, we saw the requirements of what tinubu passed into law, even the poor can't meet up with such requirements. And then even when you graduate after managing to get the loans there are little or no jobs for you to repay the loans that funded ones education. Therefore, you risk going to jail for 2 years for no fault of yours. If you're lucky to even get one you're most likely going to be underpaid.

casualobserver:
It’s too small. Fees in Universities like Unilag, Ui, ABU, UNN, OAU, Uniben, BUK, in fact the top federal university in every state should be minimum 1m if we really want to improve the quality of education in Nigeria. Intelligent poor students who are studying courses deemed to be of benefit to society can qualify for federal and state. scholarships.


If you are in a school, any school or University and you don’t see children of noteworthy people in society, know that you are not in a good school. The universities I mentioned above had children of presidents, Vice Presidents, governors, CEOs of top multinationals etc rubbing with children of the poor in the hostels and classes. If the children of elite are not in your school, you are not getting the best education or making lasting life contacts. Children of the elite are not sending their children to N100k pa university. Even if you raise to 5m some will not send so anything below 1m you are just wasting your time. The days of free or cheap University are over.

Thank God you are not in the position of power...alot of people would have cried...You are talking about a country where looting and corruption by govt officials is the order of the day ...now you are happy and supporting the removal of all subsidies ...which is the only thing the poor gets from the govt .

SmartPolician:


That's not wickedness.

Quality education is not cheap!

School fees shouldn't be less than 500k per annum.

In the UK, some schools charge over £10k (10 million naira) per annum in tuition.

The FG should let Nigerian schools run like business organisations, so that FG can focus on developing other sectors of the economy.

Tertiary education is not mandatory anywhere in the world.

Instead of you to advocate for increase in wages ...you are comparing Nigeria to UK ... minimum wage in Nigeria is 30k. ..pls what's the minimum wage in the UK

Ómó 16k for UNIVERSITY education? I think this may be one of the reasons we are having alot of dumb graduates in Nigeria nowadays. My school fees was 250k which is even cheap and it motivated me to study hard.
Nowadays you will see students saying school na scam etc.they lack for passion for education yet they are in schools for what? clubbing, fornicating, scamming and other immoral acts because they know their school fees is a meagre.

SmartPolician:


I am not even doing any comparison here because you cannot compare 500k to 10 million. Some UK schools even charge up to £30k per annum for master's degree. That's 30 million per annum, bros.

There's a reason for that. If you want quality education, you must willing to invest and pay for it. You don't pay peanuts in tuition and still complain that you didn't learn anything in school. In Nigeria, we often say, soup wey sweet, na money cause am.

How much is the average earner per annum in Nigeria?...in the UK ... people earn up to a 100,000 pounds per annum ...so they can afford it ...where in Nigeria do people earn up to that amount?... You are here doing comparison

Nawaoooo..... Nigerians are missing Buhari 🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️🚶🏿‍♂️

Nawaoooo...renewed shege

Nawaoooo...from fire pan to fire 🙄

Nigerians witnessed how Buhari APC government put hardship on nigerians for 8 years and nigerians still voted for the same APC government again into power...so what do you expect

Nigerians should had just left PDP to continue governing Nigeria at least at that time the economy was good during PDP administration.... there was no much hardship, inflation at that time...but when APC was voted into power... everything scattered.....APC turned Nigeria upside, down.... hunger, hardship, inflation.... nawaoooo

What an ignorant assertion, Some of You will just wake up and type rubbish thinking You are wise. Now is the Government Subsidizing the school fees from their pocket. A Country that Sold Crude Oil for over 50 Years is supposed to offer free Education from primary to secondary school. Now have You asked yourself where the thieves will put this money they have been using to subsidize education is not to embezzle it.

Murketeer:


Thank God you are not in the position of power...alot of people would have cried...You are talking about a country where looting and corruption by govt officials is the order of the day ...now you are happy and supporting the removal of all subsidies ...which is the only thing the poor gets from the govt .

People don’t like being told the truth. Very few countries provide free education from primary to university. Certainly not a poor country with a large population. Listen you are free to demand free university. Politicians will give you what you want, even subsidy if you say you want subsidy they will bring back subsidy. But it is you that will suffer for it….not them or their children. You are the ones that will end up with worthless degrees and unemployable.

When you go to university to end up qas an Uber driver, sales girl, bank clerk , admin assistant etc etc it is a sign too many people are going to University. University is not for everybody. The best jobs today are not going to graduates of Nigerian public universities. That tells you how your Nigerian degrees are valued by employers.

Murketeer:

How much is the average earner per annum in Nigeria?...in the UK ... people earn up to a 100,000 pounds per annum ...so they can afford it ...where in Nigeria do people earn up to that amount?... You are here doing comparison

In that same country, people who earn up to £100k per annum are taxed 45% income tax, leaving them with £55k. How many of us pay that much tax in this country?

Besides, you said they can afford their expensive tuition fees. News flash: they cannot! That's why many of them school and work at the same time, while others take student loans to offset their tuition and pay when they start working.

Again, there's no basis for comparison because you cannot compare 500k to 15 million. It's even disappointing that you are comparing the two figures because I am not. I just gave an example of where things work and how much they pay.

Once again, if you want something good, you should be willing to pay for it. That's how the world works. As for increasing wages, I am not a fan of this government, but they are definitely going to increase workers' salaries.

Lastly, if we want this country to work, we must embrace the tradition of paying taxes. In most working countries, governments finance their budgets with taxes. You cannot be paying a tax of 1% - 5% (many of us don't even pay at all) and expect your government to work wonders. Irresponsible citizens beget an irresponsible government.

Some people have been paid to spread ethnic discord, some have been paid to share racial discord, some have been paid to support the government in their policies, some just hate themselves.

That is what I have noticed. Very hard to take posts seriously when the people who are under the same economic conditions are taking potshots at others in the same economic conditions and feeling above because they are different. Look above your head; it is the same sky.

Murketeer:

How much is the average earner per annum in Nigeria?...in the UK ... people earn up to a 100,000 pounds per annum ...so they can afford it ...where in Nigeria do people earn up to that amount?... You are here doing comparison

1.Most people in the UK don't earn up to 100000 pounds per annum

2.Most UK citizens have to take loans to send their wards to school. And the loans have to be paid back. Because most of them cannot pay for their high fees out of pocket.

Let the poor breath, and more it's yet to come.

a4cube:
By September many private school will be empty. School fees increase will pursue many enter public school.

University drop out number will increase which will lead to increase in Robbery and prostitution. Its a chain reaction.

This take isn't what you think it is loool, it's not only because you finish on time people go to private schools. The competition alone in public schools itself wouldn't change a lot of people's minds and quality education that private school gives many public schools can't come close. Safe and sane environment
many public schools can't offer, a young man was beaten because he wouldn't open his exam sheet to be copied. You'd never hear that in private schools at all. I get your point too but what I'm saying is it's not to the extent of what you think

Kobojunkie:
What exactly is the essence of ASUU by the way? I have yet to find any sane country that has a University student union government wielding as much ridiculous influence as this ASUU seems to.

To start with, ASUU isn't a 'student union government' but a union of university teachers fighting not just for the welfare of her members but the overall development of the education sector in the country.
Everyone around the world including the advanced nations likes US, UK, Canada have unions. If you feel ASUU wields ridiculous influence, that's because you don't know what the union fights for.
You can hate ASUU as much as you want, but the truth which even the govt knows and admits is that without ASUU our education system would've been a mess.

OGHENAOGIE:
do u Kno how much pple pay in those countries as tax... Nothing is free on Earth except it's sponsored... U guys should stop all this jangbajantis... The only aspects of education that should be free is public primary secondary Schools... This nonsense entitlement mentality is why govt spend money on sponsoring ppple for Post graduate msc PhD but they ll never returned to Nigeria... When such scholarship should have been opened to all here and remained here...

So, you don't think that the fact that we drill our boreholes, pave our roads, provide our power supply, etc equates to the taxes we pay? How much come be income ?
Do Saudi and gulf citizens even pay taxes at all ?
Some of you with naive comparisons.
What they pay in taxes in Europe pales in comparison to the excellent multifaceted development there, sector by sector.

You are too inexperienced for this discussion. Keep defending thieves

Kobojunkie:
Does it matter how much they pay for education over there? A better question would be how much do students pay for private education in the same Nigeria that offer better standards, and facilities and maybe even labs.

We are talking of government schools here.

And how much do you want the privates here to charge ? What's the income here ?

Kobojunkie:
Why are the Nigerian people waiting for them to do this? Why can't the Nigerian people finally stand up to demand, en masse, that the subsidies be reduced? I remember when the subsidies were first introduced some administrations ago. All Nigerians did was bicker from the sidelines. They did not stand together to reject any or all of it. So, why continue to do the same thinking these pot-bellied politicians will suddenly wake up to giving the people what it is they desire?

i hope you that tinubu went to court to stop the nlc from embarking on protest?They use the court to achieve their selfish aim.They own the judiciary.

Kobojunkie:
Now you are changing the channel. Are those senators directly related to UNILAG, the company? Do any of the allowances the Nigerian people dole out to those senators go towards directly funding the company called UNILAG? I am not certain why you have to relate those to this issue here.

Are you a beneficiary of this flawed system?If you are not you wont be supporting it?

HacheNoire:


Hello, If you want the Nigerian universities to compete on the world stage, they have to run as a private business that comes with high tuition fees.

The Government can NEVER fund all universities to standards. If you propose that such should be done, then you must be also ready to welcome extremely harsh taxes.

Few days after fuel subsidy was removed,the RMAFC announced the increment of tinubu's salary from 3m to 8m naira.the minimum wage of civil servant is 30k.tinubu doesnt buy fuel from his salary.the fg budget for his upkeep.you.can see why he doesn care for anyone but himself.

XerXers:
The poor Ronu miscreants will drop out and Igbos will take their slots. Weaklings trying to teach Igbos a lesson

This should be your major problem

When did exactly did Tinubu who just came into office like a minute ago do this? Did he also stop people from signing and submitting petitions against this for over a decade now since this practice has been installed?.

Government schools are not supposed to generate revenue? They are simply meant to spend the people's money?

I just checked and Covenant university is N 472,000, and this is onto of tithes and offerings the church owners dey collect for free. What are you asking me?

LOL... I don't have any reason to hate on ASUU as I simply think it nothing but a glorified student union and nothing more at this point. The power it wields has already revealed itself as being against progress and we already have too many such organizations that should have their powers significantly curbed in that Nigeria.

Imagine if ASUU'S Jurisdiction were curbed to say local government level, this would not only give people opportunity to continue to grow and compete. But sadly, that monster continues to hold the lives of people hostage even to this day. Something I think shouldn't be allowed to continue.
