Students of the University of Lagos
are protesting the high cost of living
on campus.
Vanguard gathered that the peaceful
protest started yesterday, as the
students bemoaned the high cost of
food and other basic items on
campus, saying it is disheartening
that students are paying higher for
food and other consumables than
their prices outside campus. The
cost of making photocopies is also
said to be too expensive for an
academic environment.

According to a citizen reporter who
seeks anonymity,”Imagine, we
students are buying sachet water at
N10 per sachet, Indomie super pack
sold for N60 in town is N70 here,
same as Indomie hungry man size,
which is N100 everywhere except in
my school where it goes for N110.
Also soft drinks in plastic bottles
such as Viju,Fanta,Pepsi are sold for
N120 per bottle instead of its
supposed retail price of N100.
As at the time of this report,
vendors were not allowed into
campus.
Details later.

It's really expensive coz I think one can blame the authority of school for exorbitant charge on shop owners
