Lagos govt speaks on boarding fee hike

The Lagos State Government has reacted to the protest staged on Sunday by parents of students of its model colleges over the increase in boarding school fees.

PREMIUM TIMES reported how parents converged on the Eva Adelaja Secondary School on Sunday morning, chanting solidarity songs and carrying placards threatening to disrupt school resumption should the government fail to rescind the decision.

The school is one of the more than 10 model colleges with boarding facilities run by the Lagos State Government.
