Weep no more parents,coz there are lots of universities,polytechnics & college of education here in Nigeria.. They should all withdraw there lads from all those oversea schools coz they are using those kids studies oversea to delapiidate the little foreign reserve we have tht would have being used @ forex for importation of important goods into the country,,, only students going to study professional courses & those going for research with guarantee tht they will return to practise should only be given preference... why should a student be going abroad to study political sc.,sociology,etc with our foreign reserve s going down the drain.,,abeg let them withdraw all of them & send to schools in Nigeria,,afterall,there are still gud private universities here if u feel u dont like govt. Owned schools.. 217 Likes 13 Shares |

*Modified* I have to remove my comment because it is not my intention to cause anyone pain... seems i was only viewing this from the "state of the economy point of view" / decline in FX proceeds from sale of oil without necessarily putting human faces to these parents dilemma & despair ...many apologies.... Praying something happens to ease the economic woes which will in turn solve this problem.... 68 Likes 5 Shares |

Firefire: Fire, you are quick to use the term "hypo /Jik" but what is this one you swing from thread to thread with divergent opinions about USD scarcity? Where is the Forex supposed to come from when oil is trading @ 32$ (minor miracle) , the country almost entirely depend on just the proceeds from this single commodity & I'm 100% sure you in your personal capacity produces nothing worthy of export!! Chill "high chief" (jury is still out on that one,) there is life outside of your angst/bitterness/beed with Tinubu.... you can't keep harping on that, free your mind & live your life!! not everything is political!

modath: How to do expect any Nigerian to export anything in this hardship and economic conditions ? How do you compete favorably in the international market ? As much as I sympertize with this administration, I will surely not shy away from my strong opposition stand, we warned Nigerians not to return back to Egypt & slavery, they refused to listen. See the nemesis now. CBN no longer independence to marshal its best policy, but rather take orders from the dullard. 67 Likes 5 Shares |

Firefire: High chief of neverlandd, what are you producing? If you have, exporting it won't be a problem, People who are into cashew export are making a killing right now so don't peddle falsehood, the problem is that most people became over reliant on cheap oil proceeds & didn't look for alternatives before now.. Why did you also sidestep your earlier assertion? Ba sincerity of purpose ko? Mr wailer up there, schooling abroad is a luxury!! that your country's educational standard is falling & you choose to seek alternative (great decision) is cool, but it doesn't make it less of a luxury!!!! Some things are just common sense & logic, wailing, nit picking & bitching about everything isn't opposition... 29 Likes 2 Shares |

modath: what about those on stationary and immutable stipend? those(like pensioners) that have been detached from labour market due to their trivial exuberant prowess? how will they engage in export to source for a plethora of pecuniary? besides, the foremost reason why the parents are now despondent is due to the seldom nature of dollar. They are now impeded from procuring sufficient quantum to dispatch to their kids. so how is your averment analogous to this premise? Please, repeal this ludicrous motive of vindicating national adversities and ensure to propose sagacious panacea to curb it! 17 Likes 4 Shares |

modath: This your epistle should be to the Galatians (Awon alainironu, ara Galatia) who voted the dullest old man as a president. Let not beat around the bush, our country lost focus since 29th May 2015 when we decided to return to the 'stone-age' in this digital era. As to your exporting argument, go and ask those exporting cashew how profitable is their venture and they will tell you they break-even, with small margin. You grant loan to farmers at 26-30% interest rate and expect to export to compete with countries with 2-5% loan interest rate. What a joke. 47 Likes 4 Shares |

Firefire: PMB has only spent 8mths in 17yrs of post miltary rule, how is the crazy & unprofitable for Agro biz folks interest rate regime his fault ![]() So you were in yonder all these while & never saw anything wrong till the evil nest of killers you support lost the centre!! BTW, I'm finding it hard to believe that you have the kind of resources to sponsor a candidate in an election & also have the time to spend here to lament in a woe begotten manner all day, everyday... & even if you do, you only did as an investment (looter by association)which implies that you are as bad as the man you wail about everyday...

If the government wants to stop Nigerian students from going abroad to study,they should scrap JAMB and create better admission opportunities and processes here,why cause JAMB is more of a business than an admission body,if they want the ones overseas to come back and school here in Nigeria,then they should order Universities to startup functional transfer programs so the ones overseas can easily continue from whatever level they stopped over there. Saying they should stop wasting there time crying and come back to Nigeria just like that is not fair,especially to the average families who are doing there best to train there ward abroad so he or she studies the discipline he wants probably because here in Nigeria they either deny your admission or change your course.So let's be open minded before we start abusing them. 45 Likes 3 Shares |
