In a recent interview with Al Jazeera, President Buhari while responding to a question on the challenges faced by parents with kids in schools abroad, who are now facing the possibility of having to pull their kids out, simply said:
“If the country cannot afford it, so be it.”
When probed further by Al Jazeera’s Martine Dennis about his children who obviously will continue their studies abroad, the president said:
“Those who can afford it, can still afford it. But for those who can’t, Nigeria cannot afford to allocate foreign exchange for those who decided to train their children outside the country. We can’t just afford it. Well, that’s the true situation we are in.”
