LASU refunds N209million school fees to students

The Lagos state government has refunded N209m to students of the Lagos state University following the reversal of school fees by Lagos State University, LASU.

At a ceremony held at the Main auditorium of the Ojo campus of the school yesterday February 26th, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Education, Fatai Olukoga who represented Gov. Fashola, said this was the first phase in the refund exercise. He said the second phase of refund which is about N89 million will take place soon.


12 students were presented with cheques ranging from N150,000 to N200,000 while the remaining money will be paid to the accounts provided by the other students.

The management of the school and the students had witnessed many months of protest following a hike in school fees until Governor Fashola intervened in September 2014 and ordered that the school fees be reversed.

Nice one from fashola... Nigerains can you imagine what GEJ and PDP party are planing to sack jega the INEC chairman? GEJ and PDP party will continue to fail whatever the evil they are planing to ring the general election and governorship election will work against them. Yes I said it... Nigerians wake-up wherever you are, enough is enough, SAY NO TO GEJ and PDP party he belong to, I pledge to Nigeria my country to vote Buhari and Osinbajo on 28 of march, to be gentle, loyal on election day, to say NO TO GEJ and PDP party, with all my strength, to protect my PVC and uphold no violence and trouble.. So help me God..
Forward this to your frnds if you love Nigeria your country, enough is enough PDP and GEJ corrupt Government must go. #ihavedecided to vote for #change#

Politics politics politics. Election is around the corner and he knows students won't vote for apc hence he decided to reverse the fees. I will not be supprised if he stops collecting toll fees from lagosians pending when the election is over. We can see they now allow okada men to ply lagos roads. Funny politicians. Why did he increase the fees in the first place ???

This is clearly an election stunt. APC is doing this to win votes and I guarantee that if they get elected, the fees are going to increase again. Lagosians, do not be deceived. I have a question for Linda, I see you have pasted your entire website with APC adverts, is it because of the money you were paid or deep down in your guts of guts, you believe APC and Ambode are the ones worthy of leading Lagosians for at least another four years? Your sincerre answer would be appreciated. Look forward to your reply.

Wow. I can now see how terrorist organisations like ISIL is able to recruit teenagers and youth from all over the world even the western world. Brain washing really does. If they were to try and brainwash youth in this country they will be highly successfull. How can any one not see that this is an election stunt.

Unknown said...

So it had to take PDP in the form of Jimmy Agbaje to get Fashola to his senses?

PDP is the change we need in Lagos

I wish every year na election. It is only election period government are sensitive. Look at the speed at which they are flushing boko aram out. If only they where serious with it like this for the past six years, boko aram would have be history like ebola in Nigeria.

As for the school fees reduction, Fayemi onces did it in Ekiti later increased it more than it was before but he paid for it. I hope Lagos government will be more sensitive.

Kudos to them for deciding to refund

SOME PEOPLE ARE SO GULLIBLE!!! WHERE WAS FASHOLA WHEN THE FEES WERE INCREASED? CAN A STATE UNIVERSITY FEES BE INCREASED WITHOUT THE CAN SEXY OF A STATE GOVERNMENT? BLOODY LIE!!
AGBAJE IS INDEED A GOOD OPPONENT AND WILL SURELY WIN LAGOS.
THEY SHOULD ALSO REMOVE THE N150 TOLL FEES IN LEKKI TOLL GATES!
WE WANT CHANGE IN LAGOS STATE!!!!
JAYKAY TILL 2023!!!!!!!!!!!!

Max said...

Our people are so gullible, & these fools that call themselves our leaders are taking us as mumus....... wss it not the same fashola who increased the fees and had always hosted the protest by students, but did nothing. So what is immediate in reversing his decision of over 3 years now- barely 4 months to election. It was the same wt doctors welfare at the last election, & after the election the givt abandoned them once again,& they are now on another strike. What of the okada riders who are back to lagos roads, & are being ignored by the govt bcos election. A lot of nonsense!!!

Unknown said...

Good for them.
