LASU Students Shut Gates, Protest Soldiers ‘Maltreatment’

The students of Lagos State University, Ojo, have closed both gates that leads to the school in protest against soldiers torturing some students last week.

A parent who could not leave the campus stated that the students locked up both the Iyana-Iba and Ojo gates, as a result, preventing both vehicular and pedestrian movement.

He said, “We have been here for some hours. The students locked up both gates. Everywhere is filled with vehicles trying to come in and exit. The security men said the students shut the gates because their executives and some students were beaten by soldiers last week. We are all waiting at the gate, no movement.”
