The University of Abuja students react negatively to 5k late registration fee released on the school portal by the school management

This comes after the statement released by the Deputy Registrar (Academics) on the school email community on Thursday

The statement titled, 'Notice to all students on 2019/2020 registration'.

The statement read 'Registration and fees payment for 2019/2020 academic session has ended'.

"All students who paid their fees but have not registered can go ahead and complete teir registration as the portal has been extensively opened for them for a period of one week only" the statement stated.

The portal opened for late registration with 5k charges

The new charges has cause a lot of reaction on social media 

thousand of UniAbuja students express dissatisfaction with the new charges 

A 400 level students who refused to disclose is identity describe the charges as hash policy that is not favouring students, imagine no registration and payment of school fees for 100 level students who has done departmental screening, paying the acceptance fee, everything only to be deny to pay school fees and become a student. This is unusual, uncalled for and unacceptable ever in university system.

Martins, who claim to be a student said, i wonder why this man is as wicked and black hearted as this.

'Let watch and see, i just chatted the SUG president and he says it won't stand', Emmanuel Stated.

Micheal, who also refuse to disclose his full details depict the charges as an aquatic hilarious crimenology


A 300 level student, Musa describe the experience as a cruelty. At a time when many students will be resuming with garri and yam to manage life, somebody is making people to pay 5k for late registration, not also forgetting that many students have already left the school because of hike in school fees. If seeking to be educated is now a crime, then what is the future of a common man he explained.

Benjamin Onileowo, A 100 level student expained that the mistake made previously on the course registration that is leading to late registration and corrections now wasn't the student's fault but that of the School Portal Management Body and ICT inputting incorrect and inappropriate courses on the student's portal and which as kept the students worried, disturbed and hoping for rectification and moderation before COVID-19 breaks sweeps in.

He calls on the management to allow the course registration and corrections to be free without any payment and also plead for reopen portal for school fees payment.

A 200 level student, Oluwapelumi Timileyin relate the late registration fee has unacceptable and atrociousness.

The management has pushed the students a lot on school fees, hostel and acceptance fee increment.

He calls on students to remain calm and reject the late registration fee.

ASUU Strike, Labour Minister And ‘No Work No Pay’ Clause

I carefully read the press release of December 8, 2020, from the media office of the Honourable Minister of Labour and Employment regarding the on-going effort at resolving the industrial dispute between the federal government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU). The claims of the minister on the ‘no work no pay’ rule are flawed on several counts.

This strike is clearly provoked by the government and by this singular act she strips herself of the morality and...
