So after collecting fees as University vice chancellor, he is now kicking against it as Okorocha's in-law? Let the same type of free education in Imo state be extended nationwide? Please don't bury our education system that is already in ICU quote author=Ecstasy154 post=67418850]The Federal Executive Council stated on Wednesday that no federal university should charge tuition fees, saying the law does not allow it. The Minister of State for Education, Anthony Anwuka, stated this while briefing State House correspondents after the cabinet meeting presided over by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo. The minister said the council discussed the school fees being charged by various universities "and noted that as of law, no federal university should charge tuition fees." He also stated that the council understood that some federal universities charged fees per course unit, The minister said the government would investigate and stop this. Anwuka said the National Universities Commission had been directed to clarify and update the council on the matter. He said: “We understand some universities now charge fees per course unit and we are going to make sure that we investigate that properly and make it stop. "Students can pay other auxiliary fees, but not in excess. Various university councils and management should be able to fix what fees students should pay that is affordable and acceptable to the students. That is the position "The federal government does not determine fees for private and state universities. It only takes responsibility for fees paid in the federal universities.” The minister also disclosed that the council approved the insurance of provisional licence for the the establishment of Skyline University in Kano. https://www.dailytrust.com.ng/fg-bars-federal-universities-from-charging-tuition-fees-249806.html [/quote] |

Even the minister of education is working with target like bankers. The minister wll mount the podium tomorrow to declare generating additional billions of naira at the detriment of the masses and the same FG will applaud him with an award for extorting innocent Nigerians on account of Education... |

docadams:you see how silly you are. So federal university's should start charging N120 and N90. Instead of us to be clamouring for increase in fees in order to increase quality of education, however, I'm not surprised, Nigerians prefer free but useless education to paid-for and world class education 3 Likes 1 Share |

maryjan8: The name has never been tuition fees, look at the breakdown, most times you'd be seeing things like "development levy" "municipal charges" "ICT fees", etc, before you know it you'd be having 45k fees for a university that is supposedly tuition free, it's a big problem. 1 Like |

ultron12345: Do you know that there are countries that are tuition free not just for their citizens but also to foreigners? Google those countries, they provide the most quality education in the whole wide world! If you understand the need for education, you'd know that education just like potable water supply, should be a basic human amenity. Federal universities in Nigeria have been tuition free since their inception, why should our generation start paying fees? Instead of you to be advocating for return of merit based federal government scholarships for further education for deserving graduands, you're here going the reverse direction. Perhaps you don't even know that the money students pay to federal universities all these years have been corruption money because there has never been anything like tuition fees for all federal institutions! |

Super story. It is better they charge tuition fee oo. because they say it is tuition fee but other charges in the school prospectus pass tuition.mtchewwwwww.Federal government has been deceiving us. |

SnowJay92:go and check the taxes citizens of those counties pay and compare with the peanut you pay as tax here. Countries over there have tax to GDP ratios of over 40% while Nigeria is at 4%. They pay very high tax rates, rates that if introduced here, people like you will insult the government saying they want to suffer the common man. The reason for the rot in our education system is that is is heavily subsidized by the government, and the government doesn't have enough money to adequately fund them, so they give Nigerians what they want, dirt cheap and useless education. The government was able to adequately fund back then because we had just about 7 universities with about 50000 students. Compare that to the millions of students we have today. Quality education has to be paid for, either indirectly by high taxes, or directly by adequate tuitions. This is the same problem our health sector is facing, lack of adequate funding. If there's no tuition for federal universities, it should start now. What you should be advocating for is that the tuition is used for the purpose for which it is meant. 7 Likes 3 Shares |

Various university councils and management should be able to fix what fees students should pay that is affordable and acceptable to the students. That is the position. Keep playing to the gallery at the end who determines what is "affordable and acceptable, is it not the same Universities? |
