The meeting started with an opening prayers after which an introduction was formally made by the SUG President after which we went into the business of the day.
The management went ahead to inform the students representatives on the reasons why the school had to bring in additional charges with major reason, falling back to the inflation of commodities and equally went ahead to explain the various charges.
At the end of it all the students representative went ahead to inform the management the consequences of the increments if it should be allowed as the inflation does not only affect the management of the school but the public in general.
In conclusion the students representatives through the SUG President presented a template of the fees the Nigerian students can afford.
