“This is a major form of obligation reduction for Nigerians and families and young people at a time when Nigerians are feeling the pinch. We believe this is the way to go,” he added.
Tinubu had on June 12, 2023 signed the Access to Higher Education Act, 2023. The Act gives indigent students access to interest-free loans.
