Theodore Orji, Abia State governor, has approved 20 percent across board reduction in the school fees of students of Abia State University, ABSU, Uturu, adding that the action was to boost education in the state.
This was disclosed in a statement signed by Mkpa Agu Mkpa, Secretary to Abia State Government.
“Following the present economic crunch in the country occasioned by the oil prices in the international market, as a result of which students of ABSU and their parents are in great difficulty coping with the demands of their school fees in the institution, the Governor of Abia State, as a demonstration of his sympathy with the plight of the students, their parents and guardians, has magnanimously approved the reduction of school fees payable by all students in Abia State University by 20 percent across the board.
“This kind gesture of His Excellency seeks to ameliorate the hardship currently being experienced by parents and students as a result of the said oil price fluctuations. Government therefore expects the staff, students and management of ABSU, to reciprocate the Governor’s kindness by remaining disciplined and law abiding at all times.”
