LASU Students Protest Fees Hike
First year students of the Lagos State University (LASU), Main campus in Ojo on Tuesday, protested against the school management over the high school fees.
The protesting students were reported to have abandoned one of their examination to register their grievances.
Local media reported that the students were reacting to the rumour making the rounds on the campus that the management had no intention to effect a cut in tuition as promised during their admission into the school.
The Lagos State government, as part of moves to douse the rising tension caused by the increase in the tuition of LASU students, earlier said the proposed fees would only be paid by incoming students that would be admitted into the school in years to come.
The student were however, directed to pay N193,750 for Arts/Education; N223,750 for Social and Management Sciences; N248,750 for Law while those in Communication/Transport, Sciences, Engineering and College of Medicine paid N238,750, N258,750, N298,750 and N348,750 respectively as against old fees which ranges between N25,000 and N62,500.
