President Bola Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu through his Special Adviser on Special Duties, Communications and Strategy, Dele Alake, on Monday ordered authorities of all federal institutions of higher learning to avoid arbitrary increases in tuition fees.

President Tinubu also approved the provision of buses to the student bodies of all universities, polytechnics and colleges of education across the country.

Alake disclosed this in a statement he signed on Monday titled ‘FG ready to provide buses for higher education students, removes restrictions on students’ loans’.

Alake said this was in line with the President’s desire to “see that students can access their campuses without much difficulty as a result of higher transportation costs.”
