Student Union Government of University of Ibadan in Oyo State capital has announced a review of transport fare on campus 

The reviewed fares according to a statement by the Student Government,  apply to all destinations in University of Ibadan and students are not expected to pay more than what has been stated as transport fares to the various destinations.

The SU in the statement published by the university's campus journal, has also given a directive to students to report any form of extortion made by any transport provider to the numbers provided in the graphics.

The graphics referred to above contains various destination in the University of Ibadan and the fares that would be paid to get there from the University’s First gate.

Some of the destinations include; Kuti, Awo, Faculty of Technology and Faculty of Law, which had 100, 200, 250 and 200 respectively.

When asked how the SU plans to make sure that all transporters follow the reviewed transport fare, the House Secretary, Oluwaseun Adeyemi explained that the physical presence of the transport committee members and sanctions will help prevent exploitation of students.

In a voice note he explained how this would be done.

In his words; “Our assurance of enforcing this is our presence.”


The Student Government assured that the transport committee members would be stationed at respective hostels to avoid exploitation and these people (committee members) will give updates on the situation 

“So, we’ll know how things are going and there are sanctions for anyone that goes against these rules and these sanctions will prevent the exploitation.”

It should be noted that even after the last transport fare review made under the team Amelioration, there were cases of defaulters among the cab men.
