FUNAAB Refunds 4.7 Million To Students
The independent Corrupt Practices And Other Related
Offences Commission (ICPC), has forced the Federal
University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, to refund N4, 760,000 to
952 fresh undergraduate students of the institution.
The Spokesperson of ICPC, Rasheedat Adunni Okoduwa, told
newsmen that 952 fresh undergraduates of the Federal
University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, who alleged exploitation by
the school authority to the tune of N4,760,000 have been
refunded their money.
According to reports, the refund is as a result of illegal extra
charges levied the students for ICT training, it was also
gathered that the commission was able to burst the
exploitation after receiving a complaint from one of the
students.
The student alleged that fresh undergraduates were made to
pay additional N5,000 as fee for ICT Training despite paying
N2,500 earlier for the same training.
Following this, the operatives of the Commission swung into
action and investigations revealed that indeed the students
were levied twice for the same training as a result of this, the
Commission mandated the management to resolve this issue
within a stipulated period.
The Management has since then, made refunds to students
who have presented their evidence of payment.
