Be transparent in disbursement of students loan, NANS tells FG

Be transparent in disbursement of students loan, NANS tells FG

The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has called for transparency in the implementation of the student loan scheme.

This is contained in a statement issued on Friday in Abeokuta by the National President of NANS, Mr Pedro Obi, who urged the Federal government to appoint individuals of unquestionable integrity and competence to oversee the scheme.

This, the NANS national president said, would not only ensure the success of the scheme but also guarantee its sustainability.

While commending President Bola Tinubu’s administration for initiating the student loan scheme, Obi called on the government to engage all relevant stakeholders in the implementation of the scheme.

” The loan if properly implemented will not only alleviate the financial burdens faced by many students and their families, but is capable of ending the mass exodus of Nigerian students outside the country for studies.
