Our attention has been drawn to a very mendacious, malicious and unsubstantiated claim making the rounds that Auchi Polytechnic, Auchi, has hiked its school fees.
Ordinarily, we would not have dissipated our energy in bantering words with the faceless writer (s), but in the interest of the reading public whose conscience and sensibilities the paid writer is targeting, we hereby state that we have carried out an objective investigation which has revealed that the claim is very untrue.
In a bid to actually unravel the authenticity or otherwise of the seemingly unsubstantiated claim, a member of staff from the Public Relations Unit of the Polytechnic, who spoke with one of the Concerned Staff of Auchi Polytechnic, under the condition of anonymity, said, ” the claim that Auchi Polytechnic, Auchi has hiked its school fees is only a figment of the imagination of faceless and paid writer (s) by those envious of the unprecedented development of infrastructure and human capital by the present administration led by Dr. S.S Umar”
This totally mendacious and misleading claim (s ) misrepresent the facts and is aimed at misinforming the public into believing that there has been a hike in fees. For the avoidance of doubt, we unequivocally state that the management of Auchi Polytechnic, has not contemplated any hike in school fees, contrary to the claim by one Comr. Idodo Emmanuel Abdulrazak, under the auspices of another faceless body called ‘ Ikpeminoghena Foundation For Peace.
Management is not oblivious of the prevailing economic realities in the country and, as of the time of this rebuttal, has not issued any relic of notice with regards to hike in school fees.
The Polytechnic Management has a verifiable and timely information, as well as views with utmost concern, the attempt to spread false narratives that undermine its integrity, and it is not unconnected with the handy works of the enemies of progress.
To this end, we hereby implore the lovely students of Auchi Polytechnic, parents/ guardians and the general public, to disregard and /or jettison such mendacious and malicious claims which has already been viewed as laced without any relic of truth about a hike in school fees as it affects Auchi Polytechnic, Auchi.
Members of the Polytechnic, parents, students, community and general public, particularly the esteemed students of Auchi Polytechnic and their families are, in this regard, implored to rely on the official channels of communication of the Polytechnic, for information regarding fees, policies, or any other information relating to the Polytechnic, as the Polytechnic, under Dr. S.S Umar’s watch has a culture of holding meetings with the Students’ Union Government ( SUG), at regular intervals, and the issue of hike in school fees has never been contemplated.
Please be rest assured of the dedication, passion, commitment of Auchi Polytechnic, Auchi, under Dr. S.S Umar’s watch as Rector, to uphold its mandate, and commitment to ensuring that students get the best learning experience.
Kindly find attached current school fees schedule for your perusal.
God Bless Auchi Polytechnic,
God Bless Nigeria.
Nigeria Must Succeed.
