Not fair enough considering that these men where all products of Awos free educations and subsides tertiary education during their time.

Such a shame.

APC STATES DEY HUSTLE MONEY FOR 2019 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION

Was increase in tuition fee among his campaign promise?

If Nigeria must move forward then we must learn to pay more for some service. We can't expect govt to subsidize education for all. The leakages within the unis also must be blocked.

Quality education is not cheap
