Guy Wetin nao.

In 2008, there was a massive protest in UI on school fees coz people can’t afford.

Acceptance fee alone in UI was #5000 in 2007 . Minimum wage was roughly #5500 then and some governors are not even paying that. How then do you think an ordinary average akara seller will afford it when even civil servant will have to borrow?

That’s not school fees oo, acceptance fees alone.

Most of you just come online like Nigeria was like USA back then and suddenly turned to Afghanistan now.

When looking at prices, you factor in income too. Think smart.
Enjoy your Afghanistan! Afterall you're a head jammer.

It is a loan, not a grant.

Better go find work and start paying back.

They have your bvn. If you refuse to pay back, they will deduct the money by themselves.
It is a leap for Nigeria.

I never knew I would witness this in Nigeria in my lifetime.

Applaud it when you see something good.

Buhari’s idea not Tinubu
Specifically first introduced under Gbajabiamilla as speaker of the house under Buhari


It was finalized under Tinubu but wasn’t his idea

Looking at the text, it appears today's institutions award honours if they find students worthy in learning and have thrown the "character" aspect into their waste bins.

Anyways, that student loan Tinubu is giving students should have legal backing and their names should be properly documented. All of them must pay back the money...even if they run away from the country.
🤣🤣🤣 NELFUND REFUND.

You and some hates and bigotry is like 5&6.
Did you see what such Educational Shifts have done to the American System and what about the elimination of illiteracy or they should try ignorance for 🧬.
The Truth is that you always give excuses to fend your ignorance - just to Condemn Anything About the Govt,yet some of you can't suggest a better alternatives.
We know is in your DNA and embedded in your thinking Faculty.
NELFUND IS A GOOD CAUSE AND THERE IS NOTHING ANYBODY CAN DO ABOUT.
TODAY, Thousands Are Beneficiaries.
Note To NELFUND Management:
• Dear Mr Sawyer,Sir,
-the 20k for the Students Stipend is being Stolen or by Corruption - is Not being given to these Students,as some Officials Are Diverting it to themselves.
Exactly 2- days ago,I received a report from the Porth-Hacourt Areas - where these Funds has not been Paid but Ironically,the Officers Sent- already paid and Collected to the respective Students..
This is how Corruption starts!
Who Did this no one knows yet!

Was it not Tinubu that increased the school fees from twenty something thousand to 100k before he introduced this NELFUND? Has it been he didn’t increase the school fees, ordinary Nigerians can still afford to pay the school fees of their children without borrowing. You people love being slaves. Someone became a president and met school fees at 20k+ and he increased it to 100-200k and started giving you loan to pay the over priced school fees and you people are here hailing him. Shame on you all!!!!!

Why are Peter Obi supporters crying because of this?

If I don’t have money to attend university and I see someone borrow me money free of interest and told me to repay him bit by bit after I get a job. Is that not worthy enough to thank them?

Would you rather I remain uneducated and unexposed?

Wickedtruths:
You too, reason this thing wey you type. E make sense to you?
Yes it makes sense. They graduated, now they owe loans but no jobs so they're in deeper trouble. When the next government comes in, they will be able to get loans, and be able to pay back.

Why loan for it in the first place.The government can make it free if Tinubu stop looting the country wealth via fraudulent contracts like coastal highway of fraud. Renovation of vp house,buying of private plane,all the money spent on going to France regularly
Let it start from your state.

Let your state governor make her state university zero fee.

Nigerians will vote Tinubu out of power in 2027 and NELFUND will still continue – and graduates can get jobs and pay back their loans.
And who will continue it, Obi? 🤣🤣🤣

Even Atiku won't, those guys are worse than the Devil, I pray you guys experience it, but I trust Nigerians, just tell them stories and lies and they will be happy.

But she couldn't have attended university through NELFUND. She would have completed 2 years before nelfund became available. So why is she giving all credits to nelfund while ignoring those who paid for her jamb and admission fees up to 200L?
Besides, a whole lot of fresh undergraduates are unable to get nelfund loans as they are not taking new applicants

classicfrank4u:
Read my comment well I placed emphasis on a child, if you were paying fees for more than one child then you'd definitely be needing a loan, but the fact is fees in public schools were really affordable, there was a time uniben's tuition was 11k for an academic session, so yes, even a woman selling Akara who has been saving can easily pay that!
Even for one child, you can’t afford it.

When UNIBEN tuition was 11k for academic session, how much was the acceptance fee then? How much was minimum wage then?

Let’s compare. I am waiting.

Because if minimum wage was 8k then, and you have house rent to pay, food to buy at home, things to buy at home, how in the world would you be able to afford 11k + acceptance fee + upkeep fees out of pocket for one child?

The reality of getting a job after graduating in Nigeria is very uncertain bro, (1/10, ) , there should be included in the curriculum a strong entrepreneurship and finance course for studies with intense entrepreneurial trainings and internships, that will develop students to have strong entrepreneurial skills,

I would suggest the government should make compulsory courses and trainings in Tech sales, AI dev, remote oil trading, tech export, HR online,

That way una fit catch out after or before una even grad.

Jegaban don secure this investment on top una head,

You’re right and she is right too.

She can than NELFUND for helping her for that 2 years and lifting the burden.

She can also than her parent or anyone that sponsored her education initially.

Lastly, the student loan is still on. Most schools are getting it so far their institution are doing the right thing. There are some instance where there are backlogs but that does not mean the scheme is not a success.
