Similarly, returning MBBS students will pay N130,00.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn the other hand, all returning students of other faculties and departments of the university will pay N69,700, which is the lowest. Fresh students will pay N79,700.<\/p>\n<p>The statement added that fresh foreign students will pay a fee of N230,000 while returning foreign students will pay N183,000.<\/p>\n<p>However, students who spoke with Daily Post revealed that there is a slight increase in the tuition fee for the new academic session.<\/p>\n<p>They said fresh students of the university paid N63,000 while returning students paid N45,000 in previous academic sessions.<\/p>\n<p>A 300 level of the Biochemistry Department, Victoria Olorunwa, however, said the new tuition fee is fair because the students are allowed to pay twice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
