He continued: “There are lots of us who have no one but ourselves. Please show mercy with your decisions. Paying for TP that we don’t do is too high sir. Please do something.”

Responding to the student’s appeal, Egwunyenga, said: “If you think Education is expensive, try ignorance.”

He added: “No one is bleeding you dry. Give priority to paying for educational services in the University. Thank you.”
