LaFFs, mr chocboy! I expected u as an ex-student to be more matured & talk with ur alumni on why u feel this doesn't Justify the death of 3students already!! & about ur question, biko, what does it take to spend ₦200 daily in nIgeria?? & it's not as if d students hv classes everyday ni o..! Some got classes 3-times in a week or so....! In this Age (2013), ₦200 is too too too small to take/claim d lives of 3 students & destroy properties in the school cus of it's transport fares...! It's not as if it's a Levy imposed daily on the students, such as we see in Lekki toll! (As an Alumni, u're supposed 2 wave this poverty-mentality out sire) it's for their own transportation, if any1 felt it's too expensive, it's simple =TREK early to classes!! Why burn ur properties worth millions & billions of naira, injure urselves & resultant killings of 3 just for ₦200 It's totally WRONG!!

reading through your posts makes somethings blatantly clear....
1. You'e not as rich as you're putting yourself out to be
2. Your sense of logical reasoning is flawed.
3. Someone like you probably did not go to school and has spent the better part of his life 'sucking up'to the ones up there.
Students will always be student and the moral fibre of any community is built right from the youth.
An increase of 10naira if not properly communicated is worth protesting for......its a Federal Univ forcrying out loud. No one is against increasing transport fare (if need be) and the students have the right to protest(if they feel aggreived) but the big qustion should be - WHY SHOULD THE POLICE USE LIVE AMMUNITION AGAINST STUDENTS?
Thought you'd be asking such rational question instead of ranting on private universities and the value of #200.

I feel sorry for the parents whose children were killed. But I find it difficult seeing any genuine reason in destroying schools' property during protests (aluta), when in the long run the students will be made to pay for it. In my days in OAU, Ile-Ife, and even till date, students, with the many protests, won't even destroy a chair.
Re: 3 University Of Uyo Students Killed By Police by Ikpewe: 8:54am On Jun 13, 2013
Do you know what the students did before they were killed? What about students who were attacking the police with guns and stones. RIP to the dead students.

I don't think u understand d post! u're just quick to quote & type insults! Be calm & realistic for once!! OK..why didn't u go & get shot for ur darlyn school & colleagues at uniuyo cus fare was increased!! ₦200 is the total fare to & fro expected to convey the students in a day!! So trekking is not an option Stop being insultive, make me understand d reason's why 5 students are dead already cus of ₦200!! It's very simple!! Enlighten me!!
Trekking is an option in school bus bought my same institution fees paid by the students? Guy wake up, monkey don matured. if is the private bus or commercial bus, they rather not allow to roam around the school if they cannot comply with student union association constitution and not school and VC stealing habit constitution, students are reason school exists. They should be considered, this is not private university, it is build by their fathers, mothers and we TAX money and we still have to pay institution fees and additional # 36,000.00 per session equivalent to 400 go-come on just transportation alone.....Haba!!!! You no dey pity person, VC self wan embezzled,my the term they graduate, 144,000 naira....the VC don rich....144,000 X 20,000 students, even if bus damage, school fees will be use for repair.

Meanwhile...please stop being insultive, be matured enuff to prove ur articulated facts dat ₦200 is worth the Lives of those 5students dead cus of this outburst of protests!!

sakaguchi: Its only on Nairaland people come up and write rubbish, what is "too small" in N200.
That's too much jaare, N200 everyday X 25 days in a month =N5,000 X 4 months in a semester =N20,000 almost the price for school fees, that is extortion, trust me, this money looks small outside but on campus ( campus algebra), it is much, do you even know how money flies when one is in school?
Comparing it with private university is iniquitous, private university students are by the very status of being admitted well to do. Are you telling that village boy who's mom that sells moi moi in the village square to spend N5000 on transport by shuttle, N2000 on bike, N3000 for school material before you factor in pocket money, feeding money, babes package and so on.
I'm not in Akwa Ibom not to talk of Uniuyo but I understand with this students. ASUU has made it possible for professors witj scanty managerial skills to mount that lofty seat of VC that is why all of them are systematically killing off SUG's.
SUG's these days don't represent Nigerian student instead serve as lackeys to school Management.
The Nigerian police has forever lost my respect. FOREVER!!! I have seen where protesting students in Uniabuja were attacked by Fulani thugs and the police watched indifferently, when the students started overpowering the thugs, the police pummeled them with tear gas. Police shot a student in Uniben, now this. And the have a historic litany of gunning down innocent Nigerian students. I would have joined voices in calling for the resignation of the IG but why waste my time, he won't resign, he doesn't even know if something wrong has been committed.
PROTEST is the highest form of patriotism and this students in that ivory tower have done so, unfortunately, the, the police have proven themselves to be enemies of the Nigerian student and the Nigerian state as more students have died by the bullets of Nigerian police than by MEND and Boko Haram combined. ADEUS to those fallen comrade in Uniuyo.

Raypawer: The University of Uyo resumes second semester only to spring surprises to the faculty of science students that their lecture venue has been moved to the University's permanet site.

By this, The science faculty students that stayed in school hostel were thrown out of the school hostel.

The school bus that would have served as an alternative means of transportation for students staying off campus but the school authority said that each student has to pay hundred naira before using the school bus that was free.


The students were furious, and protested., there by blocked the Ikot Ekpene road.

Due to this, the police came to calm the situation only to join hands with the security officials in the school to inflict more pain and 3 students has been shot down dead, and there have been duel of gunshot arround the University Town Campus for hours now..

At this the student now took laws into their hands by burning down the VC's office, the Registra's Office and one of the hostels...

An interview with a security officer by plannet fm says that it was the Police that miss fired and said that they are not ready to take responsibility of the action...
Hhmmmmmm, Nigeria police, when would dey stop this stupidity and stop misshooting, but na theif they will miss targect them
Mgt,pls remeber that this students are daugther and sons of another person and success of income are different so lps consider them all

You are brilliant. Your comments is one of the sane comments so far. 70% of Nigerians live below a dollar daily. The 70% are among the students of this school. N100 is too much for an average students who or whose parents live on what they sale in a day. We need to consider issues objectively as adult. People at the helm of affairs in Nigeria are so insidious and selfish, making policies without careful consideration of people involved. It is sad that most Nigerians are living in denial as opposed to reality.

How can you say, N200 is too small for a student to pay for a school shuttle (acquired either through the same students or corporate donations), the fee can be subsidized for students' benefits. Beside, it was not the N200 that caused the death of 3 students, it was the irresponsible act of our Police men that pushed the rather peaceful protest to a ghastly one. We all have the fundamental right to complain and make it known we are complaining.

People blaming the death of the 3 students to mere N200 are very sentimental and emotional. I can deduce that they are trying to tell how rich and opulent they are whereas they have nothing to their names...this is the beauty of NL, faceless forum, you can pretend to be who you are not. I hope one day your life will be what you pretend it to be on NL. Impostors

Even in d intense turkey protests, de (Policemen) didn't shoot at citizens..talkmore of innocent students!! The Trigger-happy Policemen should be brought to Jusice! Nairaland English & blah-blah-blah apart!! This is outrageous!!
On the students part!! Paying ₦200 daily on fares didn't warrant d protests, ur sch SUG shld hv resolved dat amicably wit the school authorities, now 3 students wit bright future's in this crazy country re Dead!! If Uniuyo students are complaining of ₦200 daily as fares rate, Those in Private institution's nkor?? *sighs!!
200 times 5 equals 1000 every other week. In a say 15 semester week datz 15k only on transport. U might not get it but not every one is dat financially bouyant.

When rules of engagement are not followed, this is what happens. Students should be educated on the peaceful nature of demonstrations; leaving your school campus and going to block roads outside is not always the best. Those that have died now will not come back and the university will remain closed for some time.
