The VC also noted that there is a special arrangement with the Lagos Bus Rapid Transport system to ease students’ movement on BRT routes.

She reiterated that previously students of the institution paid N19,000, but management fixed new fees at N190,250 for students studying medicine, while for courses that required laboratory and studio, they were to pay N140, 250. Programmes that did not require lab and studio were fixed at N100, 750.

“Also, we have huge debts to pay. The harsh economic climate of the nation has affected the university, we should have been increasing our fees every year. We are under pressure to produce quality education,” she said.
