It's a lie! highest fee in AAUA is 33k and that's for education and science...



The governing board confirmed it that the governor wanted an increase by 500% cause the 26k can't buy shoes..


most of the buildings in AAUA are federal government projects, no state government projects. he only wants to swallow money..



No hike in AAUA tuition! Aketi, leave our school fees alone!

Mr whoever you are... I was with the SUG president and other principal officers in the school and they made it clear that we are gonna pay #200k tuition fee... Even Aketi said it when he came for the university convocation... At least he stopped legacy of free health, free education just to mention a few which was the achievement of his predecessor.... Gov Akeredolu will even boast that he's not going for second term so he will do as he likes
