OAU students again on Monday started a fresh protest over the recent increase in their school fees. The fees of both old and new students were recently increased and newly admitted students instead of paying N37,150 or N42,150 (depending on faculty) will now pay N 82,400, N92,700 or N95,700.

The protest lasted for hours, and when it was time for Muslims students to pray they did the needful on the highway the protest was taken place.

Yoruba and there wind pipe. If you dont have money to pay for the school fees, then go and learn work or trade. When schooling was free there some of us in the east has been paying thru our nose to go to school. Just do the needful and stop making noise.

I wonder if most of you think properly before writing comments here.. To start with, OAU was built by Late Chief  Obafemi Awolowo's western region government (with the resources from the western part)  and he was good enough to give free education to everyone then in the west .Igbos and Hausas that were residing there then were not excluded.. Nigeria has a large number of  poor people amongst her population, so why is it so difficult for the government to minimise school fee to an affordable amount for the common man...Mind you, this protest is not meant to benefit just Yoruba students, there are students from all ethnic background at OAU.. What are the reasons for the Increment when budgets for the educational sector is very low and not utilised properly? There are a lot of countries today in Europe that still offer free education for both foreign student and indigenous ones e.g Germany.. A Nation that fails to give (not sell)Education to her youths has failed to invest for the Future..

What does our government expect, u increase school fees, no job for graduate and u still expect all d social vices to drop wen a lot of people are dropping out of school everyday and d graduates are jobless. Do dey really think insecurity of life will reduce? I don't think so. Our government really needs to make plans that will benefit d whole populace and not dr own pocket. I repeat insecurity can't be eradicated ds way.
