KwaraPoly School Fees Update- State Governor Orders Reduction of ₦5000

Executive Governor of Kwara State

The Executive Governor of Kwara State, Abdulfatah Ahmed has ordered the management of  Kwara state polytechnic to reduce the current school  fees by N5000.

This is coming after the Senate president, Dr Bukola Saraki condemned the school management over what he described as their deliberate attempt to mislead and confuse the Kwara state government. 

The Governor via his Facebook page said in recognition of the current economic challenges facing families in the country, he has ordered the management of Kwara State Polytechnic to reduce its current fees by N5000.00.

He wrote:

In recent days, our Government has become aware of complaints by students, parents and stakeholders regarding the alleged increase in Kwara State Polytechnic, Ilorin, fees.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Kwara State Polytechnic has not only maintained the fees charged in the 2016/2017 academic session, it has also effected a N5000 reduction in the fees payable in the 2017/2018 session.

Nevertheless, I have taken serious note of the concerns expressed by stakeholders in the state, including the Senate President, His Excellency, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, about students, guardians and parents' capability to pay the specified fees.

Having considered the above and recognizing the current economic challenges facing families in the country, I hereby urge the management of Kwara State Polytechnic to reduce its current fees by N5000.00.

While thanking those who intervened in this misunderstanding with a view to an amicable solution, the public is hereby invited to note that the Kwara State Polytechnic relies on school fees to meet it's obligations to students and staff.
