She lamented over how students had to fund the room's repainting themselves, adding to their financial burdens.

The student also spoke about overcrowding in the room, with five students sharing a room intended for four, and the lack of basic amenities like functioning fans.

Also, the fact that a single room key was shared among five students added to her pain.

In her words:

"The room Lead university gave us. The fact that we had to use our money to pay for the painting is still paining me. This is a 4 bedded room but 5 people are occupying it because there’s no longer hostel space, there’s 1 room key and 5 people have to share it which isn’t safe and convenient at all. The fans don’t even work. This is what they call “survival of the fittest”.
