The Abia State Government has approved thirty thousand Naira to support Abia State University, ABSU Students who are indigenes of the State, following the scrapping of the Covid-19 pandemic fee after outrage from parents and students.

The Governor said he had directed those in appropriate places to start paying the thirty thousand Naira to each Abia student in the institution as further support to them, their parents and guardians in this very difficult moment of economic downturn caused by the global health crisis.
