The Edo University, Iyamo, established by Governor Adams Oshiomhole is the most expensive public university in Nigeria.

The school began its first academic session on April 11, 2016. Students who wrote the last Post UTME of the school and were offered admission were astounded when the school fees were released. To study Accounting and Computer Science in Edo University, a student has to cough out N710,000. This does not include acceptance fee of N50,000, feeding and buying of books. Other courses in the new institution cost N660,000 minus acceptance fees, feeding and books.

very very silly! smh

Is it?

So many schools springing up btw.

That school is a private University own by Oshiomole and built with government funds. It's a Public Private Partnership (PPP) where the private investor invested 70% and State 30%. When he successfully install his puppet into power they will sell the remaining 30% off to the private investor which is the same Oshiomole.

Oshiomole is the greatest scam ever in Nigeria.

interesting

In your dreams. Pdp can't win Edo

I see no reason in paying high fees for school in Nigeria. Most are all on the same level with just the 'best ones' bragging of a few better facilities.

Hmm well for those who can afford it, goodluck

Oshiomole built it for his kinds. Not the ordinary Edolite

All I can type is... it is well

seems more into UI, since the school's name is EUI.

Acceptance fee of N50,000 must be paid before candidates can cleard to commenced registration for academic activities. The clearance excercise will commence on 11th April 2016 at the schoo premises.

Simple English they cannot SPOKE like Oshiomole and they want N710,000. Ndi Ara!

Bad

......

How much does it cost to study in Benin Republic?

Hmm..

Am sure some people will say that Osho baba is a greedy governor....but the fact is it costs a lot of money to set up and adequately fund universities.

If you want someone to blame....in 2009...ASUU tried and got government's promise for extra funding for the universities. By 2013...that promise had not been kept....and all government could do was give unis N200bn to share. (Down from N3 trillion).

(Now if you expect me to blame GEJ....sorry. GEJ has nothing to do with this).

Here is the fact. Annual costs for many of the foreign universities Nigerians love to go to costs $100-200bn. (UCLA, USA spent 250bn in 2014).Nigerian Universities get on by with just N20bn naira....or less every year. That is why most of them look wretched, and are poorly equiped....because they do not have the funds to be properly maintained.

And as I said here earlier...we need N3 trillion every year to properly fund all our universities (based on the 2009 ASUU agreement). THis year's budget costs N8trillion., last year 5 trillion. Do you guys honestly expect Govt to just give universities N3 trillion out of N8trillion this year to universities? Just like that? Nothing for primary, secondary or any other form of education?

Sorry...but Osho Baba is not greedy. He is realistic. And any governor who increases fees is also being realistic. Yes....that means that some of us won't be able to go to school (which is where scholarships/grants come in)....but the fact is...if you want good universities....you have to pay for them. No two ways about it.

Edo babe...chi

I only saw buildings and empty lecture rooms, no special facility that shows its different from the everyday classroom

Doveland International school, Apo, Abuja, at my backyard is even finer than this uni. NOnsenseee!

I will rather go to eastern europe... Or even better school for Malaysia.

God dey o o o

Education is not for poor people- Adams Oshiomhole

ok

Expensive university yet they can't put together an error-free document. How hard can it be to proof read or use F7 in MS Word?

Mtcheew. Wasting of money. Are the students ther better than Unibadan, Oau,Uniabuja,and unilorin?
