Bill On Loans For Undergraduates Passes Second Reading




A bill seeking to make the Federal Government to provide loan to students to pursue tertiary education passed second reading at the House of Representatives on Tuesday.

Speaking on the bill, its sponsor, Femi Gbajabiamila (APC-Lagos), said it was intended to provide students with easy access to funds for higher education.

Gbajabiamila said a great population of Nigerian students would be enrolled for higher education if the bill scaled was successful.

He, therefore, canvassed for the establishment of Nigerian Education Bank. Gbajabiamila also advocated that the loans should be interest-free, saying: “Nigeria is blessed with abundant natural resources to tap from and encourage quality education for future generations.”

According to him, education is a right and not a privilege for Nigerians.

Students’ loans speak volume if a lasting legacy is to be bequeathed to future generations, he added.

Contributing, Rep. Nnanna Igbokwe (PDP-Imo) said the passage of the bill would provide more opportunities for Nigerian students who were financially incapacitated to further their studies.

“More opportunities would be given to young Nigerians who are intelligent but are having financial constraints to continue with their education,” Igbokwe said.

The lawmakers unanimously endorsed the passage of the bill for the second reading through a voice vote.

In his remarks, Speaker of the House, Yakubu Dogara, commended members for their contributions and referred the bill to the Committee on Tertiary Education and Services for further legislative actions.

UI Tussle : VC To Meet With The State Commissioner of Police


The Commissioner of Police, Oyo State and the embattled Vice Chancellor of University of Ibadan, Professor Olayinka Abel were said to meet yesterday, 31st May, 2016 to address the students of the institution over the allegedly unlawful  arrest of two students of the university from the Students' Union building (SUB) yesterday.

According to reports gathered, one Mr. Tokunbo was said to have been arrested from the Students' Union building on the order of Vice chancellor.

Mr. Tokunbo was said to be in the building prior to the arrest. The chief security officer and his men stormed the building and the CSO ordered that he should be arrested. Resistance from the loyalists of Mr Tokunbo left the CSO with no other option but to conduct the arrest himself, which he did and subsequently handed him over to the waiting police officers after which he was taken to the Ojoo Police Station.

It was also gathered that after this arrest, a student activist Asiwaju Babatunde Badmus was informed and in his bid to rescue Mr Tokunbo, he was also arrested.

At the police station, the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) was reported to have said that the  order effecting the arrests were from the Vice Chancellor himself.

Not long  after the arrests, the Commissioner of Police, Oyo state ordered that the arrested students be released with immediate effect.

Not forgetting that trending on Twitter is the hash tag #AbelOlayinkamustgo after a large number of students of the institution took to Twitter to air their various grievances which included the demand for the resignation of their Vice Chancellor, Olayinka Abel, after the unlawful closure of school which arose from protests consequential to an unjustified suspension of a student.
