The statement reads: “The decision to display our fees in USD serves as a strategic choice, aligning with our vision to attract a diverse and international student body. By utilizing USD, a universally accepted currency, our aim is to provide clarity and transparency for prospective students worldwide.

“For our local students, it is important to note that tuition fees will be paid in Naira. As a hub for intellectual growth, we are not only molding individuals but also making a substantial contribution to the economic development and growth of Nigeria and Africa as a whole.

“The presence of international students at Wigwe University has a positive impact on the local economy. Exposure to Nigeria’s rich cultural and entrepreneurial landscape creates potential avenues for future investments and business collaborations.

“Furthermore, the influx of international students will boost our local economy by bringing in USD. This positive impact will gradually reduce capital flight from our economy.”

Wigwe University noted that it respects the concerns raised by some public members and was obliged to clarify the dollar tuition fees.

“We acknowledge and appreciate the concerns raised by some members of the public, and we feel it is important to address and clarify this matter. At Wigwe University, we operate with the highest regard for national regulations and guidelines.

Wigwe University recognizes education as a powerful tool for societal transformation. In our pursuit of the best international faculty, we are committed to prioritizing our Nigerian faculty by providing them with appropriate and competitive remuneration packages.

“Our goal is not only to enhance the academic experience within our institution but also to contribute to the broader narrative of nation-building actively.

We remain dedicated to fostering a learning environment that respects and values both local and international perspectives, enriching the educational landscape for the benefit of our students and the community at large.”
