The Federal Executive council on Wednesday, stated that no Federal institution should pay tuition fees, saying it's illegal.
The Minister of State for Education, Anthony Anwuka, stated this while briefing State House correspondents after the cabinet meeting presided over by Vice President.
The minister said the council discussed the school fees being charged by various universities "and noted that as of law, no federal university should charge tuition fees."
The minister said the Federal Government would investigate and stop this.
He says "students should be able to pay other fees but not in excess and the institution should fix a few that's affordable.
This seems like a welcome development, but would the institutions involved agree to this or would it just result to another unending strike/protest?
