GrammarNazi1:

Be grateful.

Bagu1:
I Stand with ASUU

when public institutions begin to pay such a higher tuition fees, a lot of people may not go to school there after.

now what is the role of Education Bank...?

to grant loan to student, I guess... this is rubbish, not everyone will have equal opportunity of having access to such loan, and moreover after securing the loan who will manage (the custodian of the fund) if it is the students, a lot of people will drop out of school and start business for a living afterall, who Education epp in naija...


I Stand with ASUU...


The Federal Government should stand up to their responsibility

weyreypey:

Nonsense is it your english that am speaking or typing?

maasoap:


Your idea is a good one and it's just like what most people here used to say but education is important and it's not that simple to play down. Though, I know that the negotiator was just joking at the worst.

Wizaustin54:
this really bulshit....
not even increment to 50k, 60k ,or even 70k...... Rubbish APC govt

what the excess of calling it public school if am paying 500k as tuition fees...that to say the poor masses has nothing to do with sending their children to school if eventually it is increased...

Oh Buhari which way??

Juliusmalema:


Since most of us spend even more than this to study abroad, why can't we do it here and lift the face this our dead educational system.

Anyway govt can review it down for 250k for arts and 350k for sciences.

theoldpretender:
I'm afraid but the government is right.

Here are some cold hard facts.

1.As at 2009, we need 3trillion naira to fund education in universities.

2.As at 2013,the previous government told ASUU that 3trillion was not possible.

3.Our budget for this year is 8trillion.

4.We need to either find a magic way to earn more money, or we pay high fees.

5.Nigeria spends 600000 per student per year in a govt university (2013).

6.APC has failed, but the cold reality is that either we increase fees, or we take loans or we spend half our budget on just the universities.

Sorry, but fact is fact.

theoldpretender:


OK, let us keep on taking loans from IMF or we spend half our budget on just university just to keep fees low.

Has nothing to do with politics. If another party takes over, the same funding problem exists

Juliusmalema:
I think ASUU is wrong

Am with govt in this.

Juliusmalema:


60k is ur monthly salary I guess?

For a year is 720k

Shugavee:
and some buharians will still support this.. buhari is the worst,, tufia

maasoap:


Lol. What has been the percentage of the annual budget being spent on education?

theoldpretender:


Yes, that is the fact.

Here is the problem. In 2013, when we had a good economy, GEJ told ASUU that 3trillion in extra money for university was not possible.

Once I heard that, fee increase was a matter of time.

Has nothing to do with who is in power and everything to do with the fact that university is an expensive undertaking.

One university VC said his overhead costs per annum were 600million.Govt gives him 100million. Where will he get the balance?

Honestly Nigerians should be realistic.

weyreypey:


You won't know what education is if it states you in da face. First education in Nigeria is to collect PVC and hang it somewhere.

IsaAbubakar:
Buhari is the economic and social bokoharam
aside being a bloody criminal terrorist that kills Middle belt for fun

Thunder scatter Buhari's supporters masha Allah amin

So family no go feed abi? person no go buy cloth abi? transportation and nepa bill unkor? so we go dy hungry for 1year bkus of sch fees abi?

maasoap:


You didn't make sense. Just try to comment like a normal human being, at least, just pretend that you are normal

bigfather:


If d govt can't fund education then what do we stand to benefit as citizens then ?

maasoap:


You need N3 trillion to fund education? Lol.
Your budget is N8 trillion while N5 trillion out of it usually found its way into the individual pockets at the top level.
I guess Nigeria is the only country where tuition fees are cheap. Besides, you can't raise tuition fees for public schools beyond the income of the citizens. Where are the high paying job to pay back the loan of between 4 and 6 million naira?

theoldpretender:


We spent 800million this year on education.... Primary to university.

The 2009 ASUU fg agreement says we should spend 3trillion yearly for just university in Nigeria to keep fees low.

Our budget is 8trillion thus year.

You see the issue?
