Stakeholders of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, in the north, under the aegis of Northern Progressives Union, NPU, have asked President Bola Tinubu to resist the temptation of appointing any of the immediate past northern governor as a minister in his cabinet.

They particularly zeroed in on the former Jigawa State governor, Mohammed Badaru.

The stakeholders in a statement signed on their behalf by Mohammed Kiyawa, yesterday, said the group is making the plea based on the fact that the former governors were all spent forces, failed politicians and disgruntled leaders, who do not fit into today’s reality of the present vision of the Renewed Hope mantra of the present administration.

The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU said the Student Loan Bill, which President Bola Tinubu signed into law has the potential of sending many students out of school.
ASUU President, Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke stated this while speaking with newsmen on Wednesday.

Recall that, on Monday, the President signed the bill, describing the law as a fulfillment of one of his campaign promises.

But, Osodeke said the law might have an adverse effect on millions of prospective students who rely on tuition-free higher institutions of learning to acquire knowledge.
He said, “A country where more than 133 million are living below the poverty line and you want to introduce tuition fees? It will be counterproductive.
“Every Nigerian should know what is going to happen next and there may likely be another bill waiting for signature that will introduce tuition fees.
