This is what I typed by urself na (See attached screenshot )

See where this discussion started was that the government has been subsidizing tertiary education before now and i don’t believe they should just yank it off without providing an alternative like interest free loan if the subsidy must go.

The government is yet to put anything like that in place aside from just reading it out to us in paper, yet government schools are already hiking fees . The education bank they proposed has not been established as we speak , how students can access the loan has not been critically discussed , the terms of the loan nobody knows about it . Why talking off the subsidy on tertiary education in a rush?

raumdeuter:


A day student in JS2, JS3, SS2 and SS3 will not pay 55K of that money

But na everything we wan shout about. This is for the best education FG can offer basically tuition is free

raumdeuter:


Tertiary education subsidy is not needed, It doesnt affect your literacy, you want to become an Engineer a Doctor or an accountant, then that cost is on you. You shouldnt be given tax payers dollars from the guy who went to start business apprenticeship from JS3

Na God say make I go read the news now sef.

Nigerians ehn.

The school fees should remain the same till the student loan Scheme start running and students has access to it.

It's just common sense.

Amigoss:
Balance in the Excess Crude Account (ECA) June 2023 is $473,754.57, Reports said it was negative at some point...

About $2.1 billion was left by Goodluck Jonathan’s administration

Lol,I expect one Ruben Diaz to defend this now,He miraculous shows up here when ECA is discussed,when GEJ slander is going on to add more fuel or 8years of Buhari's APC is critiqued in comparison to GEJ...

izzou:


Even in JSS1 2nd term, he won't pay that money.

Items like School Uniform, Boarding fees would not reflect in a session.

He won't even buy uniforms again. Unless he wants to sew by himself.

There's nothing out of the ordinary with that bill.

BlueRayDick:


Simple !

When the student loan scheme is out and people still avoid it and insist on free tertiary education , then we can say such students are not serious and not ready to go to university . Not now when nothing is in place

GloriousGbola:


I have my reservations about the quality of that education though. Particularly when I see the takes of some of my classmates in our alumni whatsapp groups.

DeadPresidents:


Everything i have achieved in life today lies on the strength of a strong primary school education. My popsy sought out the best school in our area and enrolled me there when he noticed my academic performance was dropping every term. Yeah, he wasn’t rich and the school fees were expensive but he felt it was worth it and he was not wrong.

When he died, i was in Primary 4 and his neer-do-well relatives tried to get my mother to enroll us in cheaper primary schools but she said fück no

Eventually, i attended a regular secondary school but that was inconsequential as the foundations were already set. My best friend in secondary who had a strong primary school is doing his masters in Robotics in the UK and looking at a PHD soon.

We need to improve quality of primary school education if we want to improve this country. In Germany here, you can’t teach at a primary school if you don’t have the equivalent of a masters degree in education training.

larride:


Saw new students were paying 45k before.

Any day student wont be paying 100k though. They will be paying 70k.

Returning student fees still remaining the same. Probably less than 12k per year.

raumdeuter:


Lol. Why miss an opportunity to sensationalize a story.

of the 100k na Boarding fees and uniform be that main thing inside remove those 2 then you have 45K for a FGC Ilorin, Queens College or Ijanikin

Maybe FG should be putting people in hostels and sewing uniforms for them too

larride:


Na God say make I go read the news now sef.

Nigerians ehn.

liveLongNprospa:


Wetin be Nigerians ehn?
So wait... Inside this reality, people are angry FG raised fees from 45 to 100 (70 for day) and your reaction is Nigerians ehn..

Lmaooo wetin be this?

afrodoc2:


100%.

The quality of pupils the primary schools are churning out to the secondary schools is poor and the quality of students the secondary schools are sending to university is even worse. It is like trying to build a skyscraper on sand.

The university education subsidies should be removed but only after alternative sources of funding like loans, scholarships, grants are made available.

The focus should be on having a broad of quality primary and secondary schools and empowering the universities to provide quality fee-based education

The food they will eat in the market is not planted by FG. They will buy it from the market you are buying from

The Textbooks; Longman and Macmillan are not subsidiaries of FG. They will buy it from them.

So in clear cut terms, why are you expecting it to remain at 45k?

izzou:


Maybe I am wrong, but i don't know any school that will teach a child, give him uniforms, house him, feed him for 3 months, and collect 100k.

Reading the memo objectively shows it is okay.

As a new student, you need to buy uniforms and textbooks. JSS 1 1st term bills are always the highest in Junior Secondary.

The bill is very okay

liveLongNprospa:


Good good.
Nor dey complain about price of fuel again going forward because the price or the product nor dey government hand.
So get your money up and keep it moving Gee😌

larride:


Nigerians ehn is for the sensationalisation of the news.

The new bill is for new students and considering the current economic realities, I dont know what you expect the govt to do except maybe you want the govt to start subsidizing their fees again after being tuition fee.

liveLongNprospa:

Oga when a school gives you a bill, you are probably only exempted from paying the boarding fee as that is optional.
The others are not and will be paid.
How is a 55k increase not an issue?
How you dey view this thing sef?


Yunno what this subsidy when them remove dey okay sef because I don't see the issue in it.
I can comfortably afford the fuel so you should get your money up coz it is justifiable what government is doing 😌

larride:


But old and returning student fees remain the same, why is that?

liveLongNprospa:


So the increase from 45 to 100k isn't enough to get pissed about?
Is this a joke?
Even 70k is an additional 25k increase especially in these times and you think it's not worth getting pissed about?
Abi na na another economy you dey function inside?

larride:


But old and returning student fees remain the same, why is that?

I just tire

liveLongNprospa:

Must it be touched?
Can't it remain the same?
What is the purpose of increasing for new students? Abi nor be human being go source for that money inside this economy?
If tinubu had announced that he wants to make Unity schools cheaper, you go still use am as point for him..
