See The 9 Federal University VCs Summoned By Senate For Increasing School Fees ( Full List )

It has been announced that the Senate would
summon Vice Chancellors of 38 Federal
universities over increase in tuition fees.

This was revealed by the chairman, Senate
Committee on Tertiary Institutions and TETFUND, Senator Barau Jibrin on Wednesday, June 28.
This was announced after a statement
credited to the chairman of the Academic
Staff of Universities (ASUU) of the University
of Ibadan, Dr Deji Omole said that universities
have increased their tuition fees over poor
funding by the federal government.
Jibrin in a phone interview said the VCs would
be invited, when the Senate resumes from
Sallah break to explain why they increased
the fees.
He also condemned the increase and said
most of the Universities in the country are not
properly managing their Internally Generated
Revenue (IGR) including tuition fees.
He said: "There are abuses of IGR in almost
all the Universities. Our preliminary investigations have shown that there is
general abuse of IGR in our universities. We
have beamed our searchlight on it. We will
ensure proper utilisation of the IGR including
tuition fees."
Below is a list of some of the universities
whose VCs are invited:
1. University of Lagos (UNILAG)
2. Ahmadu Bello University (ABU)
3. University of Nigeria (UNN)
4. Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU)
5. Bayero University Kano (BUK)
6. University of Abuja
7. Usman Danfodiyo University (UDUS)
8. University of Ilorin
9. National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN)

However, even the federal universities are
starting to hike their prices, leaving many
scared about the future of education for the
average man in Nigeria.
