Wigwe University, founded by the late Herbert Wigwe, former Chief Executive Officer of Access Holdings Plc, has announced its course fees and a premium accommodation option priced at N1 million per month.

With academic activities slated to kick of in September 2024, the institution located in the serene locale of Isiokpo within the Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State, this institution is primed to offer a plethora of academic programmes spanning across four colleges.

These colleges include the College of Management and Social Sciences, the College of Art, the College of Science and Computing, and the College of Engineering.

The university’s website disclosed that the College of Arts has the most affordable fees, totaling N9.6 million. Conversely, the Colleges of Engineering, Management and Social Sciences, and Science and Computing each require a combined total of N11,998,800.

These costs encompass various essential components such as tuition, books, laboratory supplies and consumables, personal protective equipment, project lab resources, E-learning materials, health insurance, student membership of professional associations, as well as student activities and facilities maintenance.

In addition to the total costs per college, the school website further detailed the accommodation expenses.

The luxury single accommodation plan stands out, commanding a monthly fee of N1 million. Meanwhile, other accommodation options span between N3.5 million to N3,845,000 per session.

This school is only meant for the children of the thieves in Nigeria. No man who genuinely made money can afford the price of this school.

Bro it's possible. If I tell you how much my master's program cost, you would agree with me that their fee is very affordable.

Why waste such money in Nigeria, when you can use it to be someone Abroad.

Although 12 million can be for just a year course in Canada, even without considering accomodation and monthly groceries.

So I think it's even too cheap.

The elites will be able to afford tuition this high, and normal tuition.

If it were a Greater good project like it was insinuated, the fees would have been more affordable for everyone who seeks to be educated there.

U are right, and also having the possibility of checking up on your wards during intervals. Any parent who has the ability to send their wards has the ability to fly abroad and has much more at his disposal.

Not all are thieves.

If the uni provided education that matched their peers in advanced countries, parents may prefer to send their children here. It's dar cheaper for them than most Western universities, especially those in th US.

Yes, HENSARD university in Toru-Orua community, Sagbama LGA, Bayelsa.
An institution in his community will aid development of the community and exposure for the natives.
It's a good initiative
