OAU SUG notice on suspension of 50% increment on sundry fees

Sequel to the last release, in a meeting held at the level of the DSA, the leadership of the Students' Union met with them regarding the outrageous proposition we received: a 50% increment in sundry charges (what we rightfully refer to as "school fees") and an unacceptable 100% increase in accommodation fees.

After intense back-and-forth deliberation, the following resolutions were reached:

The proposed 50% increment in sundry charges has been completely reversed and suspended. 

However, discussions on the outrageous accommodation fee increase ended in a deadlock, with the authorities failing to provide any reasonable justification for their stance.

The leadership of the Students' Union remains adamantly opposed to any form of fee increment. We will not back down until education is made affordable for our students.
