Tuition Hike: Ogun Students Issue 4-day Ultimatum to Government, Threaten Mass Protest

Students in Ogun State-owned tertiary institutions have demanded the immediate reversal of the hike in tuition.

The students, under the umbrella of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), Ogun State, decried the hike which they said is targeted at making life unbearable for them and the entire people of the state.

Addressing journalists in Abeokuta, the state capital on Thursday, NANS Chairman Francis Adeyanju described the increment in school fees as an attempt to prevent vulnerable and indigent students in the state from accessing affordable and qualitative education.

The NANS chairman threatened to shut down the State with mass protests if the government fails to reverse the hiked Tuition fees in the next four days.

He expressed displeasure at the “insensitivity of the government towards the plights of students and development of education in the state”.

Adeyanju also berated the government for the decaying infrastructure, inadequate teaching and nonteaching staff, among others.

“It is no rumor that the government has almost abandoned tertiary education. This is evident in the current deplorable state of our campuses across the state. Our schools are now filled with decaying infrastructure, inadequate teaching and nonteaching staff, unconducive learning environment and salaries of staff are being owed,” he said.

“Most pathetic is the recent hike in school fees across our tertiary institutions. This is unfair and unacceptable. At Tai Solarin University of Education (TASUED), returning students are now to pay N180,000 as against N76,500 per session, while new students are now to pay as much as N230,000.

“The school fees of Moshood Abiola Polytechnic (MAPOLY) have been jacked up from N62,000 to N120,000 for Science students, while non-science students are to pay between N150,000 to N155,000 as against N55,000.

“For Ogun State Polytechnic of Health and Allied Sciences, the school fees were increased from N67,000 to N109,000 for indigenous students, while non-indigenous students are now to pay N124,000 as against N77,400. These are just a few examples of the abnormal increment in school fees of tertiary institutions in the State.

“There is no excuse for any government to increase school fees abnormally for whatsoever reason. In as much as we are concerned as progressive-minded Nigerian students’ leaders, we believe the government is at liberty to diversify and seek funds, but tertiary institutions should not be seen as an avenue to source funds.

“Tertiary institutions should not be seen as an avenue to generate IGR, rather they should be seen as an avenue to prepare the youths for the future in order for us to take our leadership positions.

“We hereby give the Ogun State Government a four-day ultimatum to reverse all increments in state-owned institutions.

“If nothing is done at the expiration of the ultimatum, we will mobilise our students across the state and shut down the state in a mass protest until our demands are met.”
