The Student Loan Bill was proposed by the former speaker of the 9th House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, and it was passed by the lawmakers in late May 2023.
Following the passage by the House and assent by President Tinubu, here are seven things to know about the Student Loan Act:
1. The new act will establish the Nigerian Education Bank, which will supervise, coordinate, administer and monitor the management of student loans in Nigeria.
2. Applicants will go through screening to determine whether they meet the requirements for the loan.
3. Students in all the higher institutions are eligible for the loan.
4. It provides funds for all education-related matters, including textbooks, and research.
5. It is only accessible to students studying in Nigeria.
6. There will be jail terms for student loan defaulters.
Hope this is another avenue to increase school fees. It is an interest free loan.
