In other news, President Bola Tinubu officially approved the student loan bill. Dele Alake, an aide to the president, informed State House correspondents about this development.
The bill allows Nigerian students to borrow money for their education without paying any interest. Dele Alake, a spokesperson for the president, shared this news after the signing ceremony at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
