The Federal Government of Nigeria has expressed its desire that no Nigerian child will be denied the opportunity to acquire education and skills simply because their parents could not afford it. The statement was made by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Planning and Research, Mr Dubem Moghalu.
Moghalu made the statement at a meeting comprising the Executive Secretary of Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFUND) Arch. Sony Ochono, and Executive Chairman, Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), Mr Zacch Adedeji, to finalize arrangements for the smooth take-off and sustenance of the Student Loan Scheme.
