CIRCULAR TO ALL STUDENTS:

REDUCTION OF TUITION FEES

I write on the directive of the Acting Vice Chancellor, Professor Olugbenga E. IGE to inform all returning students of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko that following an earlier appeal by students, and in view of the economic effect of the COVID-19 Pandemic in the country on parents and students, the Governor of Ondo State, Arakunrin Rotimi AKEREDOLU, SAN, has directed that the University should consider a reduction in tuition fees in a way that quality education can still be sustained in the University.

As a follow up to the above, a meeting between the Governor, the University and the student leaders was convened.

Consequently, the Visitor has approved the underlisted reduction of tuition fees with effect from the 2019/2020 academic session, as recommended by Council:

Good.
Another item added to the campaign list.
BTW, the fees of Law students were not reduced.
Hope he's not trying to frustrate them because he is a SAN.

Election strategy!
