ASCOEA Urges UNIMAID Graduates to Complete Certificate Processing

Aminu Saleh College of Education, Azare (ASCOEA) has issued an important reminder to all graduates affiliated with the University of Maiduguri (UNIMAID) from 2017 to 2023 regarding the processing of their certificates.

According to the College, efforts are being intensified to finalise and deliver certificates to all affected graduates. Each graduate is required to pay a non-refundable fee of ₦20,000 through Remita on or before 17 November 2025. This payment is crucial to ensure that ASCOEA can complete the production and delivery of certificates in collaboration with UNIMAID.

Certificate Processing Notice from ASCOEA

The management recalled that a similar request was previously communicated via Circular No. ASCOEA/ADM/INT/CIR/42B/VI/151 dated 8 June 2024, which received a low response. EducationNGR also learnt that the College has clarified that UNIMAID will not process any individual certificate requests outside this official procedure.

Graduates who fall within the stated period are therefore urged to act promptly and complete the required payment before the deadline. Non-compliance will result in the College discontinuing certificate processing for those graduates.

PLASU
PLASU Important Notice on Tuition Fee Increasement 2025/2026

The management of Plateau State University (PLASU), Bokkos, has clarified that there has been no increase in tuition fees for the 2025/2026 academic session. This statement comes in response to recent social media posts suggesting a fee hike.

According to an internal memorandum signed by the Registrar, Yakubu F. Ayuba, and sent to all students, the university confirmed that tuition fees for both new and returning students have stayed the same since 2022. Despite rising costs and inflation, PLASU has maintained its fee structure to ease the financial pressure on students.

 

The memo further explained that the confusion may have been caused by the introduction of a new ₦5,000 ICT charge, which is entirely separate from tuition fees. This charge was approved by the University’s Governing Council to support ICT services and provide free internet access across campus.

It also restated that the ₦10,000 Bench Fee, introduced in 2021 to replace irregular departmental levies, remains unchanged. Initially meant for final-year students, the fee now applies to students in 22 departments whose programmes involve outdoor learning activities such as fieldwork, excursions, and productions.

The university encouraged students to make use of the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) made available by the Federal Government. This initiative aims to reduce financial challenges connected with tuition and related payments.
