The
management of Bowen University this morning closed the school indefinitely
following students' protest last night.. All male and female hostels has
been destroyed. The Hall assistants, Hall administrators, Securities and Staffs fled and cars were
damaged. Also, the Shopping complex was invaded and faculties and departments
were destroyed. This was caused due to lack of water, light, introduction of
food timetable and imposition of plastics. Some students spoke to us.
A 300 level Student said “During
the tenure of the former Vice Chancellor, Prof. Olagbemiro there was always
light between 6am-10am, 1pm-3pm and 6pm-11:30pm but everything changed wen he
came in; there is now light from 6:30am-8am and 7:45pm-11:00pm, compare and
contrast bro”... Continues after the jump:
Another student said” Before we
can eat in the cafeteria anytime before or after lecture but he came and
introduced food timetable- Breakfast* 7am-9am, Lunch* 12pm-3pm and Supper*
6pm-8:45pm, as if we are babies. how do you expect me to wake up and go to the
cafeteria when I have morning
class, I can’t eat after lectures and I will have to wait till night if I have
8am-6pm lecture nefore I eat. It is senseless”.
We were informed that the female
hostels were invaded by the male students who ordered them to come out but none
was harrassed. It was the intervention of the Mobile Police that stopped the riot.
