The Lagos State Government has increased boarding fees in all secondary schools across the state from N35,000 to N100,000 per term.

A letter to all boarding school principals signed by the Director, Basic Education Services, Lagos State Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education, Olufemi Asaolu, and sighted by our correspondent on Friday, read, “I have the directive of the Honourable Commissioner to inform all Public Boarding House schools in Lagos State that the State Government has approved the review of the Boarding fee payable in all Public Boarding House schools in Lagos State. The newly approved fee is N100,000 Only.”

The letter titled, ‘Review of boarding fees in all public secondary schools in Lagos State for 2024/2025 session,’ added that no additional fee of any form should be collected by the schools, saying the resumption date was now September 15, 2024.

“I am further directed to inform you that no additional fee of any form should be collected by the schools.
“Kindly note that the resumption date remains 15th September 2024.”

A parent, Mrs Ayo Ogunse confirmed that the last fee was N35,000, saying parents had paid this fee last week before the new fee circular was posted on Friday afternoon.

“We were surprised to receive this new fee of N100,000 after paying N35,000 last week,” she said.

So, only boarding school kids pay fees? Commuters don't get to pay anything?

They shouldn't panic maybe the 100k is just for other people not for Yorubas.



Sanwo won't subject his people to such inconsiderate fee.



The poster above cracked me up !

Family planning appears to be enforced without public notice

Calm down smith

Lagos no try at all. They should have announced this new fee on the day the school closed for holidays not one week to start of the new term

I didn't know there were still boarding public schools in Lagos.

You are right! This is all so last minute, leaving parents with barely any time to find their wards other alternatives at this point. I thought we had all become at least that much civilized but apparently not.

Minimum wage=Maximum suffering. When minimum wage was announced, and workers were happy, I obviously knew the joy will be short-lived.We have wicked people running the affairs of this country,and careless about welfare of the citizens.
