Many Nigerian students are facing tough times in the United Kingdom after the naira equivalent of their tuition fees increased by over 60 per cent following the recent move by the Central Bank of Nigeria to unify the nation’s foreign exchange rates.
About two weeks after President Bola Tinubu promised to unify the nation’s multiple exchange rates, the apex bank decided to float the naira at the Investors and Exporters’ Window of the foreign exchange market. Since then, the naira has fallen from N471/dollar to N750/dollar and N589.4/pound to N957.2/pound.
This has led to about 60 per cent increase in tuition fees for students in the UK.

A former spokesperson for ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, Femi Adesina, on Tuesday said the Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Matthew Kukah, is still pained that Buhari did not patronise him throughout his eight-year tenure.
“Who listens to that Bishop again? He’s still pained that he got no under-the-cassock patronage from Buhari, unlike in the past. As e dey pain them, e dey sweet us,” Adesina tweeted on Tuesday.
The former presidential spokesperson was reacting to comments by Kukah who said, on Monday in Ekiti State, that Nigerians witnessed rampant corruption under the Buhari administration.
Kukah spoke while delivering a keynote address at the 60th call-to-bar anniversary of legal luminary, Aare Afe Babalola, in Ado Ekiti, the capital of Ekiti State.
