Dear 1.5 million+ NELFUND beneficiaries across 288 institutions across Nigeria, Here is a man who says he wants to be President, casually implying in an interview with @ruffydfire that the student loans paying your school fees, easing the burden on your parents, and keeping many of you in school do not matter. And then, with the usual empty drama, he says, “everything will change.” Let us help Mr. Gregory Obi @PeterObi understand something basic. NELFUND is not a favour. It is not a handout. It is not propaganda. It is a product of law, created by an Act of the National Assembly, and implemented by the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to expand access to education for young Nigerians. For many families, this is not an ‘audio programme’. It is school fees paid. It is one less burden on parents. It is a child staying in school. It is a future protected. For Mr Peter Gregory Obi to dismiss that so casually is not politics. It is recklessness and wickedness. Nigerian students have a right to education, and President Tinubu will continue to use the powers of his office to ensure that young Nigerians can access quality education without being crushed by the fear of where the next school fees will come from. Whether through NELFUND for universities, polytechnics, colleges of education and other higher institutions, or through free vocational and technical training programmes, this administration is building pathways for young Nigerians to learn, work, earn, and rise. Students, beware of those who speak carelessly about what is already helping your families. This is the same man who, when challenged on his record in Anambra, explained away the fact that he did not build critical school infrastructure needed by saying he focused on developing ordered behaviour as legacy (whatever that means). Today, the same pattern is clear in all his utterances… talk down what others are actually building, then promise that “everything will change.” Is that what the PORK ticket promises? If I may I ask Mr Obi: 1. What exactly will change? 2. Will the student loan law be reversed? 3. Will the fees already being paid for students be stopped? 4. Will the families who have found relief be thrown back into uncertainty? President Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT is committed to building systems, not slogans. NELFUND is one of them. ~ Otega ‘The Tiger’ Ogra writes as a product of the educational investments of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as Governor of Lagos State, and today as a Senior Aide to the President, whose administration is ensuring that millions of young Nigerians can access education without fear, exclusion, or financial despair. x.com/osazenoo/statu…
