i'm wondering when the program ended because it's not the case anymore in the western region. I'm wondering if the military governments after Awolowo dismantled the program The only states i can think of right now with free education are Rivers and Imo. I heard Awka Ibom, but I have no way to confirm that unless any Ibomites can give me some insight. |

I don't know because I wasn't born then. But the so called free education being provided now is what I will call POLITICAL FREE EDUCATION. It is free education in the pages of the newspapers. Pupils still pay some form of money or the other. These fees are given ridiculous names like development levy, insurance fee, examination fees etc. If I was contesting for the office of the governor of my state, I would say it loud and clear to the people during campaigns that there is no free education. What we can only provide is subsidized education. This may not win me a lot of votes though because people like to be deceived. 1 Like |
