We want to inform you that The University ofNigeria, Nsukka (UNN), has explained the reason why the added the NGN12,000 for the students internet fee for the 2012/2013 academic session which has been causing a lot of noise via her facebook page
University of Nigeria Management took the time to explain the additional 12k, and you can read it below:
Hello Lions and Lionesses, the NGN12,000 Internet fee will give you access to the Internet for 1 year and it will cost you an average of NGN32.00 per day (24hrs). It is also important for your academic research and we need to maintain the Internet facilities to serve you better. If you want to pride yourselves as true Lions and Lionesses,you must measure up with your contemporaries in the academia. You cannot be GLOBALLY competitive without research and the Internet in this DIGITAL AGE.
I readily agreed with Nsukka, in this Digital Age, every Nigerians have the right to know how the internet works, how to research using the internet and so many other things that can be done with the internet. Back in the days, we don't have all this goodies.
But the 12k is going to make someone extremely rich.
