LASU School Fees Committee Submits Report Today
Lagos State University (LASU) Committee set up to review the new school fees submits its report today. You will recall that the controversies from various quarters have trailed the hike in LASU school fees. Last week, we shared the information on the old and new school fees and also informed you when students stormed Gov. fashola’s office with stoves, pots and beds (photos).
Students of the Lagos State University will now know their fate on the school fees matter soon as the committee submits its report today.
The committee, headed by Commissioner for Transportation, Mr. Kayode Opeifa, was inaugurated last month by the governor to re-visit the issue of the tuition fee, which has led to a statewide protest by the students and supported by Joint Action Front, JAF, umbrella body for pro-labour civil society groups in the country.
Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr. Aderemi Ibirogba, had last Thursday, disclosed that the committee would be submitting its report soon.
According to him, the state government would act after the committee submitted its report to Council.
Speaking further, Ibirogba noted that the three-year-old fee regime would be reviewed based on the outcome of the Committee set up by the State Executive Council to handle the issue.
