Osun Govt Halts OSPOLY Tuition Fee Hike

By Adepoju Habeeb

The Osun State Government has suspended the implementation of the recently hiked tuition fee of the Osun State Polytechnic, Iree. 

This was made known through a memo made available to the general public from the ministry of education signed by the Permanent Secretary, Adelani. A. Aderinola.

The notification which was directed to the Acting Rector Of the institution, Dr Tajudeen Odetayo, revealed that the notification of the approved fees of the 2022/23 academic session which was earlier proposed by the management of the institution has been suspended due to a recent change in leadership of the state.

The report which was titled “ RE: NOTIFICATION OF APPROVED FEES FOR 2022/2023 ACADEMIC SESSION IN OSUN STATE POLYTECHNIC IREE” reads;

“Further to your letter Reference Number OSPOL/BUR/101/VII/239 dated 13th

December 2022 on Notification of Approved Fees for 2022/2023 Academic Session,

the management of the institution should suspend the implementation of the new

school fees regime because of the recent change in leadership of the state.”

NEB gathered that this development surfaced after the student union government of OSPOLY under the leadership of the president, Azeez Tajudeen Adebayo called the attention of the state government to the increment and appealed for it to be reversed. 

It will be recalled that the school fee price was increased from #67,850 to #112,850 for science-related courses while management-related courses were asked to pay #97,300 from the initial #57,200.
