If you have a good system in place I'm sure nobody will bother running away from their own country. Nigeria is the country where medical personnels would fix dates for strike due to your government not paying their salaries.
Yes If the system is properly regulated there won't be strike Doctors won't trample on nurses as is usually the case in naija and starts demanding for a higher pay gap just because they increase nurse salary...Let me tell you Nigerian elite class are one of the most wicked and selfish the world as ever known.... Until go out you won't understand they exploit the system to stupor and Still blame Government

Why all these comparism ?
Do you mean Government can't make life easier for their citizens.
Is it a crime for citizens to appreciate their government in one aspect.

Lopsided comparison. How many of these countries are struggling with erratic power supply and security, unbalanced infrastructural and poor/development as well as unemployment?

But the idiot called Reno Omokri lives abroad with his children while making these comments. He should have relocated to Nigeria, and try to prosper economically. Bastard.

You say government does nothing now government has left you to your fate with regards fuel. See the real cost how Manny can afford it. Learn to say thanks when you get something no matter how small. Nigerians are ingrates almost at every level.

I'm very grateful for the education I got from Nigeria honestly am lucky...
That's why a poor family in ekiti would have 5medical Doctors come to South Africa and see the level of illiteracy amongst black ... Nigerians Dominates them because of this

Did he not reference Ghana?

Is their minimum wage Australian or Canadian standard?
why should Ghana a failing economy too be the standard.
2 I know that the amount foreign students pay in foreign university is different from the fees citizens and residents pay in foreign nations.
3 how many months pay will be equivalent to tuition fees in Britain? According to his statistics an average British student pay 10k pound for tuition going by British minimum wage system I think maybe 2 to 3 month pay will cover tuition, but by Nigeria's standard of 30k minimum wage you would have to work 7months or so to be able to afford tuition in Nigeria, this should be the bone of contention, then after spending that much with Nigeria's unemployment statistics how are they going to get jobs, you keep making bias comparison, in foreign nations almost every Nigerian student work and school the same time to pay their tution fees they do blue collar jobs, and those jobs can fully take care of their tuition, in Nigeria even white collar job earners can barely afford to survive, let alone pay these fees, if the govt wants to increase tuition fees the first thing should have been to undergo economic reform first make Nigeria productive , create jobs revive the economy with economic growth Nigerians would earn enough to pay these fees.

Most families in Europe and the US and canada pay for university either by

1.Loans

2. Taxes...high taxes..sometimes up to half your income.

3.Open a bank account when your kid is born (or even before) and start saving money from day one of their life)

4.Take out life insurance on your child at birth, and at 21 years, the child cashes out and pays his or her fees that way.

Yes, they earn higher minimum wage, but when you minus utility costs, taxes...local and national, mortgage or rent, associated costs with school, even car costs, and childcare costs....the money is not much to save for university. Add healthcare costs (which in places like the USA are effing high, even with insurance), and you get the picture.


To use an extreme example...Obama as soon as he became president, opened a bank account and started putting money for his two children's college education aside. By 2015, the money had swollen to 600000 dollars. Had he not become president, he would have taken a loan like every other American citizen to help pay for the thing (yes, he was not that rich when he ran for president. Even his book was not brining in much cash..).

Why didn’t you include countries where tuition is free?

Education at all levels should be free or very affordable,in developing countries with very high poverty rate,if such countries want to catch up with the rest of the world.

Even Ghana has higher per capital income than Nigeria

Omo nna. No part of Nigeria has any free education. All federal schools have uniform or close to fee right since the day regional government was canceled. Every FG unity school students pay tuition, same as Federal uni, poly and colleges. I know many of you don't undertand the differences between Federal owned and state owned. Every states have different ways and models for their education sector. Una go open mouth wa a a a a a a a a a

All Federal univeristies do not have same fees. I was shocked when I read that the almighty UNILAG school fees was 16k in 2023. I told somebody that south west enjoys free education.

I attended Nnamdi Azikiwe University. I got admission in 2004 and my school fees was 23k by the time I was graduating in 2009 I paid almost 50k for achool fees.

I was evn telling somebody that If I had known UNILAG school fees is 16k that since 2012 I came to, Lagos, I would have enrolled for another degree.

Go and check how, much UNIZIK and other federal universities in the east are paying.

Believe me 100k is a reduction in what federal universities in east are paying..

Most Nigerian Parents will complain of 100k in a year school fees, but when it's time for their children to get married, they will spend 2m on a one day wedding.


Most Nigerian students will enjoy cheap education, when they finally graduate and get a job outside Nigeria with the certificate, they will curse Nigeria on social media for contributing nothing to their development.


EVERYONE SHOULD PAY FOR THE REAL COST OF THEIR TERTIARY EDUCATION, ONLY BASIC EDUCATION SHOULD BE FREE

I'm sure that you are one of those agbero drop outs who have been paid to make noise on this platform.

One of the millenium development goals by the UN is QUALITY AFFORDABLE EDUCATION. Other countries are working towards making their educational systems accessible to all. Nigeria on the other hand is focusing on making Public education exclusive to the few that have. They are not making any effort to significantly improve the educational facilities or infrastructure.

The government is talking about student loans in an economy where there are no jobs. How are graduates expected to repay these loans? Are we not just creating a further debt burden for the country?

How can our country improve economically when we are making education more exclusive What's going to happen to the drop outs? Won't it lead to an increase in crime rate?

People should learn to think before commenting please.

Nothing like free education...someone is paying in loans, taxes, etc.

Ghana GDP is higher than Nigeria...by 200 dollars...some 2300 compared to our 2100 dollars. That is not much...and their fees are 25 times higher than ours.

Any country with free education in Europe pays for it with tax rates that approach half a taxpayer's income. You want that here?

I am one of the administrators of a private Secondary school here in Kebbi state. Our students have been paying on average N54,000 per annum since 2018. Students of universities or colleges of education in our states pay an average of N20,000 to N25,000.

God knows the education they receive in those tertiary institution is too poor. They also graduate in huge numbers with nothing to offer, but put more pressure on the government to give them jobs that don't even exist. Truth is our number is very very large relative to our resources.

I am a proponent of an expensive education system where one has to pay a fortune to have their child educated, though I got schooled for almost free. I'm very sure the money FG paid me during NYSC is much more than what I spent for school fees and upkeep in my 3 years in the university.

I know many will argue that I am hoping to deny many people what I got for almost free. This is what I'd say to you: No public primary or secondary school is properly functioning in my state. Not a single one. We only pride ourselves in lies and deception of what doesn't exist.

This man called omokry need to visit psychiatric hospital, or is it because all the money he has stolen during Jonathan government has been exhausted, so he is desperately looking for job from government, if not, how would he made such unverified comparison. Those who are charging our children high tuition fees, ask them how much did they pay during their time, government was even feeding them then, many of them were also given scholarship to study abroad. Now they are VC, permanent secretary and director in ministries, they want to take education out the reach of poor masses. It is not their fault, it is the kind of students' union government that we have that allows them, during sowore as union leader, the VC that will increase tuition was not yet born, because it will be resisted to the later. Even students do lent their voice in government policies then, like Ali must go, IMF loan collection during Babangida etc.

In Ghana, those that earn minimum wages are usually unskilled & uneducated persons.

In Nigeria, masters degree holders earn minimum wage.

Want to know the real minimum wage in Nigeria? Take a survey of the sales boys & girls, hawkers, farm hands etc. These people earn far less than the national minimum wage.

Despite the inflation, Nigeria remains the most affordable country to live in globally. However, the primary concern lies in the insufficient money circulation within the system. Instead of engaging in business transactions, people tend to opt for safer options like investing in foreign countries through Japa or simply keeping their money in the bank.
Reno dont have d sense he tinks he has.I schld in uk.Yes fees is 9k but it comes wit guaranteed scholarship.d citizens dont pay that money frm pocket thay get 100 percent scholarship.
