Column, Metro, News, Opinion, Politics, Sponsored, , , ,
It’s time to strip away the propaganda and confront the truth: the South-East region of Nigeria continues to suffer calculated exclusion from national development policies and federal investments, an injustice both glaring and dangerous to Nigeria’s unity. Let’s break it down, fact by fact: President Bola Ahmed Tinubu STUDENT LOAN SCHEME, South-East Excluded. The 2024 rollout of the Nigerian Student Loan Scheme by the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) has so far failed to include a single public tertiary institution from the South-East among the first batch of beneficiaries.
