Resumption Of Tolling At Lekki : School Increases Bus Fee From ₦100k To ₦150k Per Child

School increases bus fee from ₦100k to ₦150k per child, following reintroduction of tolling at Lekki.

This change will take effect from 3 term of 2021/2022 academic session.

But this increment, according to the school, will not affect pick-up and drop-off around the Ikoyi axis.

A private school in Lagos has reportedly increased its bus fee per child from ₦100,000 to ₦150,000, following the resumption of tolling at the Lekki axis of the State.

A later, titled “SCHOOL BUS FEE INCREMENT”, purportedly sent to Parents and Guardians, reveals that the change takes effect from 3rd term of 2021/2022 academic session.

But the content of the letter, which was shared by Twitter user @Segolopade, notes “that this increment will not affect pick-up and drop-off around the Ikoyi axis”.

Part of the letter reads :

“This is to inform you that there will be an increment in school bus fee from N100,000 to N150,000 (two-way trip) and N50,000 to 75,000 (one-way trip).

This change will take effect from 3 term of 2021/2022 academic session.”
