With President Goodluck Jonathan signing into law the Freedom of Information Bill, it is important for we the students to have a good understanding of its provisions.

Please can anyone educate us on the importance of FOI to our education in Nigeria.

There's still problem of private and public offices holding on to their data and vital information whenever schools and students request for them for one purpose or the other, mainly for research on final year projects?

Does the FOI answer these problem and what happens if any officer or institution defaults by refusing to give access to information.

We need good contributions!
Thanks.
