Nigeria Universities – Polytechnics and College of Education news Nigerian Educational News | Zenith Of Educational NewsThis asuu strike is really getting out of hands, why would ASUU decide to increase school fees again, instead of searching for ways to solve this issue, students have to pay again for what they did NOT have any issues with!
According to information reaching us from the Ebonyi State University Chapter of ASUU, where the chapel has warned of likely increase in school fees if the demands of ASUU were not fully met eventually by the Nigeria Federal Government.
According to the Chairman of the chapter, Professor Ndubuisi Idenyi, who gave the warning in Abakiliki at a news conference on the current ASUU strike.
According to Prof. Idenyi, who said that the fee hike would come when universities attempted to source money for their Earned Academic Allowances as directed by the Federal Government.
Here is what the Chairman of the chapter, Professor Ndubuisi Idenyi has to say;
We demanded for N500 billion but the government has only released N100 billion to university councils for infrastructure development in selected universities and another N30 billion for part-payment of Earned Academic Allowances.
“The government has asked various universities councils to source the balance.
“But the question is from where will the funds come if not through increase in school fees.”
however, am against this idea, but if it will make the ASUU strike come to an end, it might be worth it.
But what’s your opinion about this?
