AMBROSE ALLI UNIVERSITY STUDENTS ENGAGE IN PROTEST AGAINST RISE IN TUITION FEES

...Urge immediate reversal

_..NANS, FOFSUL urge Edo State Government to uphold their commitment as the 90-day period for dissolving the SIT has already expired_

Learners and concerned parties of the state-affiliated academic institution in Edo have taken to the streets to demonstrate their dissatisfaction with the exorbitant 300% surge in educational expenses.

During a press conference, the National Vice President of NANS conveyed that the university raised its fees without consulting the student union's leadership or considering the prevailing national circumstances.

Moreover, she criticized the institution for employing students as a source of internal revenue generation, utilizing their tuition fees solely for staff salaries while disregarding student welfare.

Furthermore, it has been revealed that the hostel accommodation fees were increased in the previous term, citing impending renovations. However, no renovations have been initiated, let alone completed.

She urged the management, under the Freedom of Information Act, to provide a comprehensive breakdown of how the previous fee increment was utilized, warning that any further attempts to raise fees would be met with resistance.

The President of the Forum of Former Students Union Leaders [FOFSUL] reiterated that they had sent letters to the Acting Vice Chancellor on three separate occasions to initiate negotiations. Regrettably, these appeals were dismissed, with the Vice Chancellor branding them as meddlesome interlopers masquerading as stakeholders.

He also reminded the government of Edo state that they trusted his assurance regarding the establishment of a governing council and the dissolution of the SIT, emphasizing that more than 107 days have passed since the promise was made.

In a widely circulated voice note on the internet, the Acting Vice Chancellor stated that prospective students who cannot afford the fees are free to seek admission elsewhere, claiming that fee increments are inevitable to sustain the university's operations.

At the time of reporting, all activities within the university have been suspended.
