The University of Benin, known for its dedication to various productive activities, including tech, sports, commerce, and calculus, has once again showcased its commitment to supporting students’ needs through the UNIBEN Trade Fair.

The trade fair, which is organized by the university once every semester, aims to provide students with affordable access to essential goods. This year’s event is currently underway at Hall 1 car park, within the university’s premises, and commenced approximately two weeks ago. The trade fair is set to conclude on Friday, August 4th, 2023, offering a wide range of goods, such as bags, clothes, shoes, and more, all available at pocket-friendly prices.

The UNIBEN Trade Fair has been met with mixed reactions from students and visitors. Some have expressed satisfaction with the event, noting the convenience and affordability it brings to their shopping needs. On the other hand, there have been debates about the prices of goods at the fair, with certain individuals claiming they are higher than regular market prices.
