Analysis

  • This data is indicative of regional differences in both registration and application rates for student loans across Nigeria.
  • Northern states like Kano, Borno, and Benue have shown higher registration numbers, which could be attributed to the larger youth population and the demand for educational support in these regions.
  • Meanwhile, states like Bayelsa and FCT-Abuja have comparatively lower figures, reflecting either a smaller student population or less awareness and access to loan facilities.
  • The percentages reveal that a majority of students who registered for the loan eventually applied, with states like Borno (84.4%) and Yobe (86.2%) showing particularly high conversion rates.
  • In contrast, states like Anambra (49.1%) and Imo (51.3%) had lower application rates after registration.
