Students in State tertiary institutions have been protesting the huge hike in tuition fees at their various institutions of learning since last year. Some students have been made to drop out from school because of their inability to afford the over 200% hike in fees. Many also forced to repeat a session for failing to meet the deadline to pay fees. Despite the exorbitant costs, there have been no improvements by government in infrastructure provided in these schools and lecturers are at battle point with State governments over the issue of salary and allowances
