The Association of Vice Chancellors of Nigerian Universities (AVCNU) through its Secretary-General, Prof. Michael Faborode, has denied reports credited to the association that the Federal Ministry of Education and other stakeholders in the tertiary education sub-sector have agreed on N2,500 as fee for post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (post-UTME) screening.
According to him, it is not the duty of the association to make such pronouncement but that of the Ministry of Education.
He further stated that the whole story exhibits poor reportage, contains half-truth and conjectures, and represents very poor translation of the proper content of a written information as there was no way it was stated in the statement released by the association that Post-UTME is now N2,500 or that CBT has been scrapped.
