The management of Bowen University has released a notice indicating that the institution will review the school fees to be paid by students as from 2016/2017 session.

According to the notice, the reason for the review is necessitated by the following challenges;

1.Rising inflation rate and consequently high cost of living in the country

2.Poor power supply that necessitates continuous reliance on generators with its attendant cost implication on fuelling, servicing and maintenance. For example, diesel which sold for N125.00 a litre in June 2015, rose to N170.00 in June 2016, and in the first week of July 2016, has risen to N200.00! (The University runs its generators for an average of thirteen and a half hours daily as a result of erratic power supply)

3.Provision and maintenance of infrastructures

4.Sustenance of conducive learning environment

5.Employment of qualified staff, especially academics and Consultants for the Teaching Hospital.
