Debt servicing gulps N13.17tn under Buhari, education suffers

While commenting on the development, the ASUU Chairman at the Federal University of Technology, Minna, Dr Gbolahan Bolarin, said the government did not care about education.

He stated, “I think the future of education funding in Nigeria is weak because it doesn’t seem like the government has a concrete plan for the education sector. In as much as that sector is not seeing inflows from investments, what would happen is either the government borrows to finance that sector or they neglect that sector, just like they are currently doing. Education doesn’t bring much income as a sector, it is a sector that the government has to invest in for long-term benefits.

The members of the Colleges of Education Academic Staff Union recently suspended strike for a period of 60 days which, according to the union, will give the government enough time to meet the demands tabled while the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics suspended its strike on May 29, 2022. A few days after the suspension of the strike by ASUU, lecturers in polytechnics on November 11, 2017 announced another strike which lasted for 15 days. The strike was called off on November 29, 2017.

I appeal to the Debt Management Office DMO Nigeria to officially furnish all presidential candidates with the current and projected Debt Profile of the country. Let no one lament about an empty treasury after winning this election.

When MBuhari himself is not educated.

Education suffers and the man in charge say we should charge ASUU to court! What a shameless government.

And some people are still in support of this senseless APC govt.

I don't expect anything better from this figure head government. A government that values cows more than human lives, talk less of education.

It us only an irresponsible govt that embarks on senseless borrowing at the expense of the entire country. This govt is bent of collapsing the economy. It's unfortunate.

Despite all these debts, we are still not better. Then the debts

pro lem Some one. Please add b to it For me
