Where are the South East schools? How about the South South? What am I missing?

It seems that Igbo students and students from South East are well off...not asking for any loan or grants

Or the parents in these areas are very okay ..it can be an economics denominator

ok

Government borrow.
Students borrow.
The country is drowning.

Time for a woman leader

At least 50% of the Southwest students are probably Igbos... Dem don run commot from their region finish.

Everything has been politicized in Nigeria. Sectionalism is killing us

Wawi

God bless Nigeria students

God bless Nigeria

toh

Make una try list their names make we check something. Thank you. I'm waiting...

This clearly indicates that students in the south East are well to do, they don't struggle educationally

Looking at these student loan application numbers, something interesting stands out — the South Eastern part of the country doesn’t show up much on the list of applicants. What that really tells us is that families there aren’t scrambling to take out loans to pay for their children’s education.

In other words, many parents in the South East are in a position where they can comfortably afford school fees without having to borrow money. That’s a strong sign that the region is doing well economically. It shows that people have the means to their kids’ education without financial strain.

So, while students in other regions might have to rely on loans to get through school, South Eastern families seem to be managing on their own. This paints a picture of a community that’s financially stable and better off — which is really encouraging news about the state of the economy there.

the question you should be asking is are the students getting the loans not "where are SE or SS schools"?

South East people don't believe in FG fund like that. Afterall, they are all millionaires.

Now you have indirectly agreed to Igbos making 50% of the SW population

The North understands these loans will not be paid hence taking it massively.

Isn't it ironic that the people who do not go to school have the highest subscription of the loan?
