Trust Northern Nigeria.. they know that the debt will be waived in future. The way it's going i doubt it will even continue during Tinubu second term.. its not sustainable.

Southerners only complain and dont take these opportunities. The North will keep enjoying Nigeria
It's sustainable. That's the kind of subsidy that will get to the masses unlike petrol subsidy only few billionaires are benefiting. The northern people are like cattles but we southerners are the grass they are eating. We talk too much yet won't act. Government release policies and funds we won't apply while the northerners goes everywhere they can smell money. It happens during the Anchor borrowers program and it's happening now. Talk of oversabi in the south

Well, you’ve a point there about the farmers being engaged in a venture but if history is anything to go by, this NELFUND won’t be any different.
You remember how many people also thought the NIRSAL Covid “loans” were a grant until their accounts started getting debited?
Where I think this NELFUND will be slightly different is beneficiaries now don’t start paying back until they’re gainfully employed; if they don’t pay back especially if they’re later on employed and receiving salaries, it’s just to place an auto-debit on their accounts using BVN that way, DSS or EFCC won’t even have to be involved.

omoh.. well the farmers were engaged in a venture, unlike most graduates that will end up jobless... DSS go arrest tire be dat

Yes, still the same top states will present lowest number of school enrollment. Each time the figures do not match. It's only when it's time to chop that we see figures pouring like rain. They benefit more from the government, yet they will be the first to complain when power leaves them.
Kudos to those who don't depend on government handouts to survive. They are the real citizens and no matter how the system tries to suppress them, they will always survive and thrive.
Lol.. Na the Igbos living in those state they apply for NELFUND

Taking loan is now an enviable opportunity?

Make una continue. Our eastern brothers are smarter. Repaid or not, it shows the true economic standings of each zone in Nigeria. I am happy my Edo State and South South didn't make the list. God's willing more of us will go to school more than the people with the loan.
lol.. parents are struggling to pay ridiculous fees in our govt owned tertiary schools and you think it is a wise thing to ignore this opportunity. There won't be a trophy for who didn't collect it at the end.. make we continue dey do overwiseness while the North chop everything...

na the same over wiseness make our ppl dey play by the books while the Northerners dey pack their ppl put. Today we can see the inequality in our public sectors.

if they are like most graduates who don't get employed in paid jobs but end up running businesses, they can perpetually keep claiming the jobless status.. well, we can only keep our fingers crossed to see how things will pan out

We the Southerners-are too noisy partly because we don know how to speak small grammar,so we just love to blow grammar,here on the Nairaland Forum and Other Social Media platforms.
The Northerners know the game plans well.

If you like continue supporting madness na for your body everything go land.


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You people will just be laughing when it is not necessary. Can please explain to me what is wrong with taking students loan?
In the US despite their good economy majority of students take loan for schooling infact you are encouraged to do so and it is one of the reasons why they are educated.

Please do not digress.

There's nowhere in the world where taking loan is considered enviable. Take the loan if you need it but do not belate those who do not need as being unwise. Every penny borrowed must be paid.
Re: 2025: 10 States With The Highest NELFUND Application by divineshare(m): 9:37pm On Sep 30, 2025
Part of the reason why we Igbos are not on that list is majorly because our names alone will disqualify many.. So things like this don't make headline news in our region.

We are born not to depend, but if we see help we go accept sha.

keep deceiving yourself like the average southerners that you are. There is no where in the world that taking loan is considered a stigma. There is no serious business person that doesn't service loan so that point falls flat. Those who know how Nigeria works can tell that this is going to be waived.

Funniest thing is that the fact that your small state isn't part of the first 10 here doesn't mean there aren't beneficiaries from the state. If anything i suspect SS and SE were purposely not giving enough cos they didn't support the current President

True talk from you too.

The same reason the Northern youths will flood. the election centers very early on election days while their Southern counterparts will convert the roads to football field without bothering to vote and d cry later on the social media.

I am waiting for the day any ignorant fool will blame this Nelfund issue on the fact that the body is headed by a Northerner.

Free. money now to relieve your parents, they refuse to collect.

@bolded, people often accuse others what they're guilty of.

You can check the approved or non approved schools for yourself. And don't even try moving the goal post

Tell us the schools approved in the East and schools denied approval. Is it that difficult?

It's nothing to rejoice about if your state is not there on the list- these people are just making use of available opportunities to share in the national cake, not just because they need the money! Besides, their population is also high, so they'll definitely record more applicants. These people know that the loan will likely become a gift in the nearest future so they'll definitely apply more. Tell your people to also chop and clean mouth

Whatever rocks your boat.

Most parents from my state and other south south and southeast states can comfortably sponsor the education of their wards.

What is the need to burden the nation with loans in the name of waiver? People like you who sees every loan from the government as nonrefundable are a serious problem to Nigeria.

Please go ahead and take a loan for something you can confidently finance without worries. After all, it is government money. The 'better south' will not do that.
