A parent has posted the fees for her child.

More.

The fake news appears around this time every year from the exact same sources. This is 2023.

125% UNITY SCHOOLS TUITION INCREAMENT:125% increment on tuition & further increases on all other fees will mean a parent will have to look for N300k per term. This is simply ill-timed,wicked, callous, sadistic & a breach of social contract.Millions will be forced into crime.

This is 2024.

TINUBU PRIVATIZES SECONDRY EDUCATION: PARENTS TO PAY N380,000 PER STUDENT.

Since it is from Tinubu, it is not news. Not doing so by him would have been a news item.

Perhaps it is another form of tax on secondary education to enable him to raise enough money to buy new planes for Akpabio and Speaker Abbas for all the " SUPPORT" in shortchanging Nigerians and destroying Nigeria.

A DAY IS COMING

₦386,000 Unity College fee is scam, ministry warns parents

The Federal Ministry of Education has denounced a fraudulent document circulating among parents, purportedly from the Office of the Director, Senior Secondary Education Department, claiming that approved fees for Federal Unity Colleges (FUCs) are ₦386,000.00, which contradicts the ministry’s established fees.

The ministry’s Director of Senior Secondary Education, Hajia Binta Abdulkadir, in a statement on Saturday, said that the document is fraudulent and fake, as it did not emanate from the Office of the Director, Senior Secondary Education Department.

Abdulkadir said the highest fee paid by students in FUCs is ₦100,000, only for new students, covering boarding, uniforms, textbooks, and other items, while tuition remains free, noting that the tuition fees in all FUCs are free.

“Again, the purported document did not carry the correct address of the Office of the Director, Senior Secondary Education Department, including the numerous flaws and terrible spelling mistakes observed in respect of some items on the bill,” Abdulkadir said.

She added that the document is an attempt to spread misinformation and cause confusion among the public, and parents of FUCs, especially the new parents.

The ministry stated that the ₦386,000.00 fee was a scam and advised the public to disregard the document.

It added that any individual who is in doubt about the FME-approved fees and charges for FUCs should check the website of the Ministry or contact any of the Principals of the FUCs nearest to them.

Edo Queens FC @EQFCofficial

From dreams to reality! Victory tastes sweeter with the WAFU B trophy in our hands, liifting this trophy is more than a victory; it’s a promise hands! Onward to greater heights

Do you know the man in the black T-shirt? He is the person that Nigerians always looked forward to seeing during Olympics, Commonwealth and All Africa Games opening ceremonies in the 1980s and early 1990s. He was Team Nigeria's captain at all those events and he usually carried our flag (I think he was the longest serving captain).

His name is Yusuf Ali and he was the African and Commonwealth long jump champion (I think he held the African and Commonwealth record).

He is currently the chairman of the Edo State Sports Council.

Edo Queens FC @EQFCofficial

Energy levels soaring! Yussuf Alli (OLY) arrives in Abidjan to lift the Queens’ spirits, injecting an extra dose of motivation and fueling the Queens' determination for the final showdown tomorrow!

Emem Essien is the highest goalscorer of the competition.

Godwin Obaseki (GGO) @GovernorObaseki

I congratulate our darling ladies for their superlative performance, emerging champions of the CAF Women’s League WAFU Zone B qualifiers. They gave a good account of themselves and have kept to their promise of making us proud.

Over the past eight years, we have committed to raising the bar in ensuring equal pay with their male counterparts to serve as motivation. They have proven that we didn’t make the wrong decision.

This is their first sub-continental championship and they have put up a good showing. It is indeed a sign of greater things to come.

I commend the team for their well-deserved victory. I urge them to continue with the brilliant form and proceed to replicate their impressive feat at the CAF Women’s Champions League.
