REGISTRAR DENIES SCHOOL FEES INCREMENT

Saw this post earlier today ..  This guys are really getting us confused ooooo



This is to inform all students of the Federal University of Technology,
Owerri (FUTO) and the general public that the University
Management has not approved any increment in school fees for the
2015/2016 academic session. However, in view of the challenging
and ever increasing cost of running the University, Management is
considering a marginal review of the charges on some of the services
offered to the students. If and when this is done, the students and all
stakeholders will be duly informed through the appropriate channels of
communication in the University.
The University Management therefore urges our students and the
general public to disregard rumors of the purported increment in school
fees currently in circulation.

Orje Ishegh-Nor, FNIM
Registrar & Secretary to the Senate.

MSSG 4RM SUG PRO TO ALL STUDENTS

ATTENTION  TO ALL FUTO STUDENTS
After  A Closed Door Meeting  Between The Vice Chancellor ,His Management Team  And  Executives Of The Students Union Government, Held  At  Senate Building On The 27th Oct 2015.Issues Concerning  Sudden Increase In School Fees And Postponement Of Resumption Date, Dominated The Over  Three Hours Meeting, Which Ended In Deadlock.
However ,The Executives Of The  Students Union Government, Met Briefly At SUG Secretariat And Resolved As Follows:
1.That  The Sudden Postponement Of The Resumption Date, Was As A Result Of The Institution’s Inability To Assess Funds From CBN. Recall  That The Buharia Led Federal  Government Administration ,On Assumption Into Office Mandated All Federal Bodies To Channel It’s Account  To CBN, Under The Treasury Single  Account(TSA).
2.That The Student Leaders  Will Vehemently Oppose/Reject Any Form Of Increment On Our School Fees.
3.We Urge All Our Students To Remain Law Abiding And Peace Loving, As Negotiations Between  The Vice Chancellor And The Student Leaders  Continues Later This Week.
ALUTA CONTINUA   VICTORIA ACERTA.

ROBBERS CAUGHT AT FUTO UMUCHIMA

ROBBERS MEET THEIR WATERLOO >>>UMUCHIMA NEWS!
The peaceful and calm environMent around umuchima, was
reported to have experienced another robbery attack some
days ago.
An eye witness disclosed to our reporter dgossipfuto that the
heist took place in the early hours of Saturday. A team of
four(4) bandits invaded legacy lodge and robbed the
inhabitants of the lodge, in the process one of them was
caught while the other three escapes unhurt.
He further disclosed that before he was caught, he was
seen begging for a shirt to put on as he left his shirt at
legacy while on the run. When he noticed that his actions
were being suspected and monitored, he quickly swerved to a
nearby bush around koko mansion. He later found a pathway
leading to amausa road where he tried bothering a bike but
meet his waterloo as he was reprimanded by a vigilante. He
was later taken to the police station since he couldn't defend
himself in front of the vigilante.
Meanwhile, a suspected criminal was burnt beyond
recognition by an angry mob around umuchima yesterday
October 19th. The robber was caught after him and his gang
members attempted to steal a motorcycle from an okada
rider at night. His accomplices escaped but he was caught
and burnt.
Students are admonished to avoid keeping late nights as the
neighborhood is no longer  safe.

CHECK OUT WHAT SOMEONE WROTE ABOUT TSA, BUHARI AND RESUMPTION

Found dz online...  Guess it was written by a UNN Buhari supporting student....  "i think i like Buhari".....  Dat part got me laughing....  Read for yourself

" HOW THIS TREASURY SINGLE ACCOUNT BY FEDERAL GOVERNMENT CAN BRING SOLACE TO YOUR SOULS......... ,it is imperative to say that the issue of treasury single account by federal government is a welcome development especially to Nigerian students,it will stop corruption In higher institutions,like the amount of acceptance fee payment nd other fee payment will minimise,when students pay for any  fees,it will no longer reflect on school account,this was the reason ASUU as a chapter disagree on such policy imposed by federal government,so this will force schools to reduce fees impose on students knowing Full well dat they have nothing to gain again...many federal governement Institutions r yet to finalize the necessary procedures,buhari  administration is so keen to  bring sanity in universities,,information I gathered last night from office of vice chancellor says due to such policy by buhari led administration ,UNN may likely reduce acceptance fee payment since it wil no longer reflect on school account...many schools r finding it difficult to cope with the situation,I think I like buhari,,,this policy has even force a school like FUTO not to release supplementary form since primary admission list was released,UNIZIK also gave  notice that they won't release more lists,,,,
schools becos of this policy might not release much names because they have nothing to gain again,any  payment Students make will be channelled to federation account, the reason why schools keep releasing list is because they believe they will generate More money from students but it Is no longer like dat.....this policy by federal government is Good....those waiting for suplementary list should keep waiting and also pray well...they will tackle the issue of this policy first , UNN will allow  those who made it in primary list to pay for any fees before  they will remember supplementary list even though it has been compiled.....stop been anxious of supplementary list,,,primary list is different from supplimentary list,they must pay any fees before sup list is released unless this year changes,UNN consider those who made it in  primary list to finish their acceptance fee payment before anything ..... ......have a nice weekend."


Lol

TSA AND FUTO RESUMPTION DATE (UPDATE)

This is to inform both new and returning students of
FUTO that payment of fees at FUTO is currently put
on hold until the university finalizes the Treasury
Single Accounts (TSA) procedures with the CBN. In
particular, candidates already offered provisional
admission for the 2015/2016 session should not
make any payments for ACCEPTANCE FEES in any
commercial bank accounts until they are instructed
otherwise on this website. Beware of fraudsters

FUTO POSTPONES SCHOOL REESUMPTION DATE INDEFINITELY

**BREAKING NEWS**

This is to inform the general public that the resumption date for the 2015/2016 academic session previously published to be on Monday 26th October, 2015 has been postponed indefinitely.
This is to enable the institution finalize issues regarding the Treasury Single accounts(TSA) policy of the Federal government. A new date will be announced in due course.

It was also pasted in some departments that the school fees would increase by almost 20% but the SUG DOW Odunze Ebuka rebuffed the information saying that the SUG would look into the issue....  This was before the school told fresh students not to pay  acceptance fees or old students not to pay school fees till the whole TSA issue is verified
