His statement and the receipt showing the amount he paid for a hostel in the university caught the attention of a social media user, @Unique_Tech_.
@Unique_Tech_ immediately asked some serious questions after coming across the post made by the UNILAG student.
He asked:
"Please tell us, what are the benefits?"
"Personal suite room?"
"24/7 light?"
"AC steady?"
"Water steady?"
"Just tell me if the benefits include those, among others, for you to have paid that amount without being coerced, and it doesn't include school fees."
At the time of writing this report, the student of the University of Lagos is yet to respond to the questions.
Several individuals who saw the amount the UNILAG student pays for accommodation in one of the hostels of the school have reacted in the comments section.

"This is definitely a private hostel. Public hostel in Unilag is around 80k per year. These are hostels built by private individuals for profit making not charity. If you can’t afford it, avoid it or stay off campus."
@chyke99 said:
"El-Kanemi Hall was a public hostel at one time, but I think after the renovation and all it was handed over to a private organization to manage Regardless, this is too high."
