The Lagos State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) warmly commends President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on his visionary declaration of free technical education nationwide.
This bold and people-oriented policy is yet another clear demonstration of the administration’s resolve to empower Nigerians with practical skills, expand opportunities, and secure a brighter future for generations to come.
By removing financial barriers to technical education, President Tinubu has opened the door for millions of young Nigerians to acquire relevant skills in technology, innovation, and vocational expertise- skills that will drive industrial growth, self-reliance, and economic resilience.
To further support this initiative, each student will also receive a monthly stipend of ₦22,500, ensuring that financial hardship does not stand in the way of learning.
This is a practical intervention that will not only encourage enrollment but also sustain focus and commitment to studies.
Our people say, “The child who learns a trade will not go hungry.” With this landmark policy, the President has not only responded to the aspirations of Nigerian youths but has also laid a solid foundation for sustainable growth, massive job creation, and poverty reduction.
The Lagos APC proudly notes that this policy aligns seamlessly with President Tinubu’s lifelong commitment to education, capacity building, and human capital development.
It is a natural extension of the vision he pursued as Governor of Lagos State, where he introduced free education and invested heavily in schools- investments that continue to bear fruit to this day.
Once again, those in the opposition who thrive on falsehood and idle distractions will be put to shame. While they predict doom and indulge in empty rhetoric, President Tinubu continues to deliver tangible, transformative policies that directly impact the lives of Nigerians. History will remember not their noise but his achievements.
The Lagos APC salutes President Tinubu’s foresight and assures him of our unflinching support as he continues to reset Nigeria on the path of progress.
With free technical education nationwide and a ₦22,500 monthly stipend for every student, a new chapter has begun- one where skills, not limitations, will define the destiny of our youth.
Indeed, Nigeria will rise again.
