Fee increment: Unijos students lament 155% hike

Students of the University of Jos have lamented the over 155 per cent increment in school fees by the management of the institution.

The university management had on Saturday released a new school fee schedule for fresh and returning students, a development that many parents and students said was uncalled for.

Our correspondent reports that last session, both fresh and returning students paid N45,000 each. They however said the new charges were too high for parents considering the economic hardship in the country.
