Exactly three months after at least two students of Nasarawa State University were killed, allegedly by officers of the Nigerian Army, neither the state government, nor the police, appear willing to punish the culprits.

The students were killed on Monday, February 25, when hundreds of students of the University protested the deteriorating welfare conditions in their school. The students marched on the streets of Keffi to protest against absence of potable water and electricity on their campus. In a bid to disperse the protesters, live bullets were fired and some students killed.

Although initial reports said four students were killed, the police later confirmed the death of two students in the protest. Both the Nasarawa Police Command, and the Nigeria Police spokesperson, Frank Mba, denied that the students were shot by police officers, with Mr. Mba referring questions on those who pulled the trigger to the Nigerian Army.
