Show this video to their parents so that they can see the kind children they sent to a higher institution.

Throwing stones and projectiles at armed security agents is madness, Aluta spirit can be destructive, we did it in our days, burnt several vehicles and destroyed facilities.

The school was shutdown for 2 months, then the school authorities calculated the value of all that was destroyed and imposed it on us.
Resumption followed this sequence.
1st week: 100 Level (novices and Jambites) and Final year students (eager to graduate) = very peaceful group.
2nd Week: 400L (many of whom just returned from SIWES or Industrial Attachment) = We dont want trouble group.
After one month when Lectures have gone far: 200L = semi trouble group
Finally 300L = troublesome and hot headed group.

For you to enter the school gate or attend lectures on return you must present your receipt of payment for damages.
We hear am that year.

You're a Pharisee

My dear you are only looking at the issue on ground from one angle.
Poor security and Electricity Blackout in their hostels for long periods has made it easy for armed robbers and petty thieves to rob innocents students of their valuables, rape girls, stab guys etc..
The protest will definately draw attention of the govt, the world and media to their plight.
Some people laid down their lives for some of the things we enjoy and brag about now.

Checkout the writeup of a Nairalander that visited her sister in the school

Some University should be closed down or converted to colleges of education mostly those from the western Nigeria that will help do away with the glorifies secondary schools they called University.

Protesting for whatever reasons to the extent of attacking the convoy that include armed police men is madness. Those boys didn't do it with their thinking caps

Sonfethopia:
Don't justify the killings sha

But they are justified, to hurt or maim other peoples children parents and breadwinners?? Just STFU

I am happy with this video.

You know sometimes when you refuse to take sides or have sympathy with whom everyone wants you to have sympathy with, they'd see you as a mad person or someone who has no human feelings.

The way I am built, I find it difficult to always judge a case from one side of a story. If all parties involved have laid their complaint, then judgment can be made without bias.

That's an average Nigerian way of thinking and the reason why we'll continue to suffer and keep smiling in this shithole. So a student sent to school cannot express his/her dissatisfaction again. my heart sinks anytime it come across my mind that I'm a Nigerian coz I know there's no hope for this country. Only a mad man would keep believing and hoping that Nigeria will be better one day......get a VISA and escape from this horrible Zoo

Vianna:

How do you read and come out with a degree when there's no electricity to read?
Not justifying their actions but there's no comfortability for a student when there's no electricity.

Jayslicky:


These protests may lead to an increase in their tuition fees.

I was at the federal poly Ado Ekiti as ND2 in 2005 and students protest were hijacked by students who had failed woefully and were on probation.They destroyed cars and damaged office equipment.
we spent four months in the house and each student paid 5000naira damaged fee when resuming.
It wasn't easy to get then because our school fees for that session was less than 2000naira

Hurt u say, the one our leaders de do us no reach burn them alive. The police can come Down and calm them . but because this Is a shit hole they can shoot. Na people like u go enter govt de use force harass the masses.

After we graduated, I learnt that Aluta can be successfully done without violence.

Las las, that lady on blue skirt at the end of the video, I just hope that the fence rod didnt affect that place you are thinking

You must be Eksu Alumni

Nymphnode:
After seeing the video, I would have fought back with brute force too if I got attacked in this manner. Survival instinct and anger would have taken over better judgement.

watching videos don't just explain everything we are not dumbed. I've spoke to some of the student and they said she came in peace not until the police slaped the union leader and chased them from trying to see their first lady

Spot on. And who actually made this secondary school a university? That person really doesn't understand the concept of University. Infact the University if serious by now should have a self sustaining power facility.

I wish there could be a course called "How to Plan and Organise a Peaceful Protest" taught in schools, especially higher institutions. Perhaps it can form part of the GNS or GST courses every student is exposed to in the early part of their university days. Our Nigerian anti-riot also need to be exposed to a similar course but this time should focus on how to prevent a protest from becoming a riot!

What a lot of us cloak as "peaceful protest" in Nigeria is far from it. In a peaceful protest, you don't hurl missiles at law enforcement. You don't go to the nearest public garage to hire touts and ruffians in the name of mobilisation. "Aluta" isn't a license for lawless and mindless behaviour.

How can a protest by students of a university degenerate to the point of hurling rocks and other projectiles at the convoy of a government official? I watched this video and several others and I am surprised this incident only led to 2 deaths. This could easily have become another Police vs Shiites war leading to a slew of casualties.

From all indications, the police did not willfully open fire on students. They did so because they were provoked. If you corner a policeman and attack him with rocks, he will respond the only way he knows how...with much more violence. Our policemen are experts at heavy-handed conflict resolution. They adopt extreme measures in every conflict, shooting to kill most times. The unfortunate thing here is that the police weapons are equipped with real bullets and not plastic bullets as is usual in developed climes. This is a major failure on the part of the government. It is time we realise that protests are an inalienable part of democracy so we will see more of this as time goes on. It is, therefore, time to re-train and equip our law enforcement agents accordingly.

Over a million people marched and protested during the recently resolved Hong Kong protests. No one lost their lives in the crises apart from the 5 protesters that reportedly committed ritual suicide to press home their demands. This is because the police deployed standard riot gear: Teargas, Rubber bullets and batons.

Students and citizens must do better. The Police also needs a total reorientation and proper equipment to avoid this unnecessary loss of lives going forward.

God bless the dead and console their families.

Police should have shot more. Idiots, undergraduates behaving like area boys. Attacking innocent. Shame
