UNILORIN Increases Tuition Fee By More Than 100%’ by InoutNaija(f): 5:11pm On Nov 03, 2018 |
The University of Ilorin has increased its tuition fee by over 100 per cent, students and a university official confirmed, Naija News Understands The students union president, Seyi Animasaun, first confirmed this increment in one interview said: “What we have woken up to is rather unexpected, shocking and challenging. This cannot stand. I have called emergency meeting with all SU executives and all Faculty presidents and we shall release a comprehensive report after,” he said.When he was asked of the amount added to the tuition, he said it “varies across different faculties”. It was also gathered that the tuition for the department of Mass Communication for instance was increased from N10,700 to N23,300. Inoutnaija understands that the increment will take effect from 2018/2019 academic session. Confirming an increment, the institution’s Director of Corporate Affairs, Kunle Akogun, also said that the increment is ‘marginal’. He was however contradictory in his response. “It is not an increment. Do you have the fees of other Federal Universities? Even with the increment, we are far ‘better’ than other universities. “The increment is just marginal with the current economy reality and we are still below other universities,” he said. Meanwhile, students have stormed the social media to demand a reversal.

If govt can release over 250k as subsidy per student why can't the students cough out 60-70k on their own part to get education? Lots of graduates are just going to school to get certificate and don't pay emphasis on the skill it affords them to acquire. If you value the education you would even do manual labour to save N200k as buffer to help see you through school and enjoy millions in subsidy. 18 Likes 1 Share |

The increment came at the wrong time The labour congress are still battling with the govt on minimum wage issue, all of a sudden unilorin increased their school charges by 100percent. Naija which way |

otokx:Thank you. Nigerians don't realize the universities are dealing with over 5 times the student population of 25 years ago with almost same resources. They think education is cheap because govt subsidizes it. 34 Likes |

The fees is still cheap compare to other federal universities that had increased theirs. To avoid this drama, fellow Nigerians vote for presidential aspirant that value education. A person passionate about human capital development. Buhari or Atiku are after fame 2 Likes |

Are you serious, so you wasted my data because of an increase from 11,000 - 23,000. Like are you guys freaking serious? The majority of you guys use phones worth way more. Your cummulative data in a year is probably worth more. Don't give us that "Nigerians are poor crap". If you take an holiday job you would definitely be able to afford a part of it and then you can complement it with your parents give to you. Nobody should come here to complain about school fees not exceeding 30,000 naira. Instead of you to celebrate your university, asking them how they manage to keep the school running with such low fees you are here rambling. It seems you don't know it would take the current annual school fees of 70 unilorin students to pay one professor's monthly salary. And 840 students annual school fees to pay one professors annual salary... Inasmuch as we don't want govt to leave the poor behind, pls do not be ridiculous. Any school fee lesser than 30,000 is fair on the part of govt and the university. 40 Likes 3 Shares |

The fees are actually low compared with what's obtainable in some other federal universities. However an outright 100% increment seems insensitive especially when stakeholders aren't carried along. |
