The University of Benin Senate has approved the removal of N20,000 late registration fee in the institution.
The introduction of the late registration fee by UNIBEN management led to a two-day mass protest by students of the institution earlier in the week.
The university’s Registrar, Ademola Bobola, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday night in Benin, Edo State.
He said Senate also approved the refund of the fee already paid by the students.
Bobola said: “Consequently, lectures are to resume on Monday, September 20, to enable students who obeyed the directive on school closure and travelled, to return.
“The university’s decision-making body also agreed that a new time-line be set for the payment of the school charges for the 2020/2021 Academic Session.
“It also directed that the re-activation of charges for Postgraduate Programmes be sent to the Board of Postgraduate School for review.”
