Academic Staff Union of Universities has said that poor students are at disadvantage on the Students Loan Scheme.
The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) says poor and indigent students will not benefit from the students’ loan recently introduced by the Federal Government because of the conditions attached.
President Bola Tinubu signed the Access to Higher Education Act, 2023, also known as the Students Loan Act, in June this year.
Chairman of the University of Jos Chapter of ASUU, said today in Jos that the conditions attached to the loan were not for the children of the poor, who were supposed to be the target beneficiaries.
