LASU Students Protest In Ikeja

by  Khadijah Thabit 1 min read

In a bid to protest the recent school fees hike by the Government, students of Lagos State University have taken to the Ikeja Airport road right down to Ikeja bus-stop in Lagos State.

The protest is aimed at calling the attention of the state government to the outrageous cost of education. The incident has caused a lot of traffic gridlock on the Ikeja road for some time now as the students have succeeded in using a truck to cause an obstruction on the said commercial road.

The students and lecturers of Lagos State University recently embarked on an indefinite strike to protest the school fees increase.

UPDATE:

The students are presently in Oshodi to continue their protest. Police officers have reportedly sprinkled Teargas into the air to disrupt the protest. According to the SUG (Student Union Government), some of the students have been arrested.

More details later.
