EKSU Reduces Late Registration Fee to ₦5,000 Following Portal Error

The Management of Ekiti State University (EKSU) has approved an immediate reduction in the late registration fee from ₦10,000 to ₦5,000 following the discovery of a technical issue on the student portal.

This was disclosed in a statement issued by the Ekiti State University Students’ Union (EKSU-SU) on January 25, 2026. According to the statement, the ₦10,000 late registration fee initially displayed on the portal was not the approved amount but resulted from a technical configuration error.

After a thorough review by the University’s ICT Directorate, the fee has been corrected to the approved sum of ₦5,000.

Students who are yet to complete their registration have been advised to proceed with payment of the revised fee through the official university portal without delay.

The statement also noted that students who had already paid the incorrect ₦10,000 will be accommodated through a reconciliation process, with the excess ₦5,000 either refunded or credited toward future academic charges.

EKSU Management expressed regret over any inconvenience or financial concern the error may have caused and reiterated its commitment to maintaining a transparent, efficient, and student-friendly administrative system.

Students have been urged to complete their registration before the final deadline to avoid further complications.

The statement was jointly signed by the EKSU-SU President, Osunyomi Hezekiah Anjola, and the General Secretary, Ojotu Olamipo Opemipo.
