There is now a public outcry from parents and students of the Afe Babalola University, Ado (ABUAD), Ekiti State over the recent obnoxious increment in fees. BlackBox Nigeria gathered that Medical students are now expected to pay a whooping N2.6Million from the initial N1.2Million they were previously paying.

BBN further discovered that the fees which was initially N900,000 was increased to N1.7Million only a couple of months ago and now to an outrageous N2.6Million.

Some of the students who bared their minds on the new fee regime expressed disappointment in the management of the citadel owned by legal luminary Aare Afe Babalola.

"Behold the most expensive university in Nigeria. In view of the current hike in fees which is really bizarre we as students have expressed our sincere disappointment but this is not a single battle. Initially, the fees was approximately N1.7m but rose overnight to N2.6m. Our parents are complaining and we are feeling their pains because they want us to achieve our dreams.
We really need the social media to join us in this battle. This exploitation must stop. We can't protest because we will be expelled" A student wrote.

Another student disclosed;
"I  a 300level Medical Student at the Afe Babalola University. I would like to use this medium to inform you that there was an increase in the fees of medical students at the clinical level today by over 1.4 million Naira totaling the fee to about 2.6 million Naira.
There had been an outrageous and unacceptable outcry by the students. Please your support in this fight against extortion and exploitation would be so much appreciated by the entire student community."

The new fee regime is expected to commence from 16th March, 2015 according to a document signed by the school"s registrar.
