TOO BAD!!! 38 Nigerian Universities Increase Tuition Fees Due To Poor Funding [See List]

The Nation reports that at least 38 universities
across the country have increased their tuition
fees due to poor funding by federal and state
governments.
The Chairman of the Academic Staff Union of
Universities (ASUU), University of Ibadan
Chapter, Dr. Deji Omole, stated this in a
statement in Abuja on Monday.
-University of Lagos (UNILAG) N14, 500 to N63,
500
-Ahmadu Bello University N27, 000 to N41, 00
-University of Nigeria N60, 450 to N66, 950
– Obafemi Awolowo University N19, 700 to
N55,700 .
– Nnamdi Azikiwe University N20, 100 to
N65,920
– Bayero University, Kano, N26,000 to N40,000
– University of Abuja N39,300 to N42,300
– Usman Danfodiyo University N32,000 to
N41,000.
The statement which assessed the two years of
President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration,
lamented that the government had made
Nigerians poorer.
Omole said the public education was not taken
seriously because “children of the rich and
those in high offices” do not attend school in
Nigeria.
The latest increment might be attributed to poor
funding by the federal and state governments
as ASUU poorly rated the President
Muhammadu Buhari in the area of funding of
university education.
ASUU also noted that it would be difficult for
any Nigeria university to compete globally due
to inadequate budgetary allocation to the
educational sector.
