LASU Students Reject School Fee Again

The Students Union of the Lagos State University (LASU) on Thursday, July 3, directed its members not to pay the new tuition fees until a further reduction was made by the state government.
The Union's President, Nurudeen Yusuf, who signed a press statement said that the tuition fee was high, in view of the economic situation of the state, when compared to the relative fees payable in other universities across the country.
"Following the meeting, the union resolved that students should resume with immediate effect but strongly warns that no student should pay the fee, until further notice,"the statement said.
It, however, called for the reduction or withdrawal of some charges such as: acceptance fee, tuition, caution and field trip/teaching practice levy.
According to the statement, other charges the students requested for reduction include laboratory and practical/workshop/studio work.
