UNIJOS Students Shut Down School Amidst Protest by Nobody: 4:01pm On Nov 24, 2014 |
The presence of fierce-looking military and police men was not enough to deter them, as they shut down the school and the ever busy Bauchi road in protest over the attempted increase in school fee. Just two sessions ago, as a 2nd year student, I paid N12,500 as fees plus about N4000 for hostel accommodation. Today, just 2yrs later, am paying N27,000 and N13,000 for school and accommodation fee respectively. As if that isn't enough, I get to dish a further N10,000 for late registration. The above inconsiderate fee for a federal university wasn't enough for the VC- Prof. Hayward Babale Mafuyai as rumour had it that he sought to further increase it; big mistake. The SUG lead by the President- Com. N.N Abel went to the deliberation table with him, but instead of reconsidering, he went on to call the students "RASCALS", hence the last straw that broke the camel's back. This morning which was supposed to herald the start of our exams was spent battling police teargas and opposing attempt by the army to repel the students. The students have vowed to continue until the school meet their demands. Long live Nigerian Students, death to oppression and corruption. Aluta Continua! Victoria Acerta! Com.

The way the school management is exploiting the students with arbitrary charges is getting out of hand.It would've been better if this school have good infrastructure and standard learning facilities,good welfarism,and upright SUG with that exorbitant fees. In UJ you will see (SUG,DEPARTMENTAL,PROSPECTUS,MEDICALS) DEWS in the school fees reciept outline and still pay all this during the registration. we pay university development dew of #10,000 but nothing has ever developed in the schools;only our school fees is about to be developed. Can someone pls tell me where our sundry charges of #5,000 is going after several dews like university development,facilities improvement,academic calendar stabilization(only God that stabilizes calendar doesn't collect a dime),student insurance policy,registration,departmental registration,prospectus,partnership with students project,SUG,library booklets,campus security,ICT(they ought to be paying us for even using their frustrating and annoying wi-fi they said it's free despite we paying for it),examinations,computer based test,GST fee,etc? This people were enjoying free education during their time,but now milking the hell out of the students........WE SHALL OVERCOME ONE DAY MOD,MAY GOD BLESS U AS YOU MOVE THIS TO FP.........ALUTA CONTINUA |
