NANS Described PolyIBADAN N32,000 Acceptance Charges As Fraudulent Extortion
The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has asked the management of The Polytechnic, Ibadan to withdraw N32,000 acceptance charges on the newly admitted students of the institution.
A statement made available to our correspondent in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital, by NANS Spokesman, Adeyemi Azeez Amoo described the charges as “fraudulent extortion.”
He pointed out that the leadership of the student body had met with Minister of Education in its determined bid to ensure a better and affordable educational status for students.
According to him, one of the issues discussed at the meeting was “the regular abstract charges of acceptance fee by schools.”
The statement read “The president of NANS, Comrade DANIELSON Bamidele Akpan, has directed that the management of the polytechnic of Ibadan, should as a matter of urgency withdraw totally the acceptance charges of N32,000.” [adinserter name=”Block 3″][adinserter name=”Block 2″]
“We equally warn the polytechnic not to dare alter the status quo of the tuition fee as paid in the last session.”
“NANS can not afford to watch education been taken away from the access of the sons and daughters of the poor.”
“Finally, any attempt to negate the above directives from the NANS national secretariat by the management of the polytechnic Ibadan, NANS national leadership shall relocate its secretariat to Ibadan polytechnic.”

I was surprised with that amount.. When they are not paying school fees..
So tremendous!
extorting student, all just because the current rector is leaving is post
Didn’t hear about this
Please i do advise all applicants and admitted candidate to still hold on and not to rush in paying the acceptance fee, for as this matter, the management must reduce the fee and if you’ve paid the #32,500 i don’t think it will be refundable.
Why the increment??
But this is not fair, they should know the kind of economy we are in now
How do they want student to cope,
Please it must be changed o
I pray so my brother
How do they want student to cope,
Please it must be changed o
Nana keep the good work
I pray it will be changed, so far NANS has intervened
Please, is this acceptance fee for HND or ND students.
ND only
#32000 is too much
That huge amount for an acceptance fee that doesn’t guarantee admission
This is nonsense.
That is another school tution fee
This is arrant nonsense
My question is this, when you pay 32k for acceptance, how much will school fee be?
The fee is too much
@ayo, ND
Please hope this is not real??
Admin, has anything be done concerning this now??
The price is just too exorbitant
Wow!!! Those that they are happy before. That will be very bad
How will those students feel??
And the new hall warder of unity hostel as started doing some things in the hostel cus of the new students
This is called fraud indeed!
What about pt student i heard it is 34000
pls ADMIN when is the deadline for the 32k acceptance fee
The deadline should appear on your student portal after you’ve been considered for admission though the deadline might change.
Any news about reduction so far?
