Oborevwori Urged To Interven in Exorbitant School Fees, Extortions at Delta College of Health Technology, Ofuoma 
.....As parents demand upgrade of school facilities 

Delta State Governor , Rt Hon Sherriff Oborevwori has been urged by parents of students of the. state owned, Delta State College of Health Technology , Ofuoma, Ughelli North Local Government Area to urgently intervene in the prohibitive and exorbitant as well as extortion of students by the school management.
According to a parent, Mr Philip Nwo (not real name),incoming students are made to cough out a whopping N238,000 as school fees excluding a N10,000 acceptance fee and an additional N45,000 for school accommodation which is optional .
Our checks reveal that the admission forms were officially sold for N19,000 but were sold by agents of the school to parents as high as N35,000.
As a matter of fact, most parents who bought forms late were not given past questions booklet that was suppose to be part of the admission form. As against the state nursing school forms that were sold for only N15,000 without agents. The Delta State College of Health Technology, Ofuoma has become  notorous for all kinds of corruption without any form of checks even as parents call on Governor Sherriff Oborevwori to embark on an immediate face lit of the school.
A source told this reporter that the racketering of admission and extortions of students by lecturers are well known to the school authority as they are beneficiary of the rot eating deep in the college.
The indiscriminate sale of admission forms to raise money without commensurate provision of standard facilities in the college calls for concern .
Another source also told this reporter that some courses in the school are regarded as highly competitive such as community health, pharmacy and medical laboratory. Admission slots for these category of courses  are sold for N300,000. The same also applies to the state nursing school admission were slots are sold as high as N750,000.
The situation at Ofuama is so bad that students are now weary of charges and extortion by lecturers forcing indigent students to withdraw from studying.
