Oyo College Students Move Against Outrageous Fees

The students of Oyo State College Of Education, Lanlate, have raised alarm over what they described as outrageous fees being paid by students of the institution.

The Students’ Union Government through its President, Muhammed Yusuf Olaitan also lamented over the bushy school environment unkempt with dangerous animal attacking students during lectures.

They further alleged that the Dean of Student Affairs expected to act as a father takes pleasure in having sexual relationships with female students and threatening to withhold student’s results

The President in a statement said, “Despite charging an outrageous sum of Three Thousand Naira (N3,000) cumulatively, the management has refused to issue any form of identification to students, exposing us to harassment and denying us scholarship opportunities.

“In the twenty-first century, students are unable to check their results online and print course forms despite paying for this every semester.

“We are required to pay Eight Thousand Naira (N8,000) in 100 level, and N3,000 in 200 and 300 level each, yet no noticeable development can be seen.

“The school environment is bushy and unkempt with dangerous animals attacking students during lectures.

“The Dean of Student Affairs who is expected to act as a father takes pleasure in having sexual relationships with female students and threatening to withhold student’s results”.

Olaitan, however urged all students to continue with the peaceful protest tomorrow.

“I urge us to remain steadfast and peaceful.

Our demand remains the immediate resignation of the Provost and Dean of Student Affairs,” he continued.
