The protest began in the early hours of Friday, DAILY POST reports. Our correspondent gathered that the protest was ignited as a result of the approval of the fee increase by the institution’s governing council. DAILY POST gathered that the governing council, during its meeting held at the institution on Thursday, approved the fee increase. This led the students to announce the commencement of the protest. Some of the students who spoke with DAILY POST on Friday morning, lamented that their school fees had been increased by more than one hundred percent. Our correspondent reports that the students have boycotted their classes and are going around to enforce that no classes are held until the fees are reduced. A student from the Department of Human Nutrition, who spoke in confidence with DAILY POST due to fear of intimidation, said that students in the department paid N58,000 during the last session. However, she was surprised when the fees were increased to N138,350 for the new session. “In our department, Human Nutrition, during the 2022/2023 session, we paid N58,000, and now for the 2023/2024 session, we were asked to pay N138,350,” she said. A student from the Department of Animal Science said that fees in the department had also been increased. He added that the majority of the returning students have yet to pay the new school fees. “In the Department of Animal Science, Faculty of Agriculture, we paid N70,000 for the 2022/2023 session, and now for the 2023/2024 session, it has been increased to N150,000. “Most of us have not seen the money. We are yet to pay. The students are protesting now. We cannot attend lectures,” he said.
