Information reaching Ibom Focus says that Nigerian Government Slashes University’s Tuition Fees By 50%
The Governor Mohammed Bago-led administration in Niger State has implemented a significant reduction in tuition fees at the Abdulkadir Kure University of Education, slashing costs by half.
This move, announced by Prof Muhammed Yahaya-Kuta, the university’s Pro-chancellor, aims to alleviate the financial strain on students and parents, particularly in light of the recent removal of fuel subsidies by the Federal Government.

In extending congratulations to students, parents, and residents of the state, Governor Bago urged beneficiaries to reciprocate by redoubling their commitment to their studies, thereby contributing to the overall development of the state and society at large.
The governor expressed optimism that with the support of the people, his administration would continue to implement measures that alleviate financial burdens and promote educational accessibility for all.
