The senator representing Ogun Central Senatorial District and Chairman of the Senate Committee on ICT and Cyber Security, Shuaib Salisu, has commended President Bola Tinubu’s education reforms, saying they have significantly improved students’ access to tertiary education.
Salisu, according to a statement on Saturday, spoke during an engagement with student groups who visited him to discuss issues affecting students and express their support ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The groups, including the National Association of Nigerian Students, Ogun Joint Campus Committee, National Association of University Students and National Association of Ogun State Students, also presented Salisu with an award of excellence.
The senator said the Student Loan Fund introduced by the Tinubu administration had helped reduce the risk of students dropping out by providing tuition support and stipends.
“The rate of dropout in our tertiary education is almost zero on account of the Student Loan Fund,” he said.
