Backlashes have continued to trail the recent increments in school fees of various publicly owned universities in Nigeria. SaharaReporters learnt that certain federal universities have hiked their students' tuition fees by more than 100% in the last 12 months. The University of Maiduguri in terror-ravaged Borno State, Northeast, was among the first to raise tuition. The institution hiked their medical students' tuition to N238,000 in January, up from less than N100,000. Tuition fees for law students were raised from N26,000 to around N104,000.
