Two female students of Nasarawa State University, Keffi, have reportedly died following a stampede that occurred at the university’s convocation square on Friday.

The convocation square was the venue for the distribution of palliatives to the students by the Nasarawa State government.

A source within the university revealled that two female students have been confirmed dead as a result of the stampede which left others with several degrees of injuries.

“What we are hearing now is that two female students have died. They were said to have been suffocated because of the crowd and they were later declared dead by the healthcare workers,” the source said.

Confirming the incident, the National President of the Nasarawa State Students Association, Yunusa Baduku, said that most of the students involved in the stampede had been rushed to hospitals in the area for medical attention.

“Seriously, what happened this morning at the Nasarawa State University, Keffi, is uncalled for, and very pathetic,” he told Punch.

“After our arrangement for the distribution of palliatives to the students which was to hold at the University’s convocation square, they (students) suddenly arrived at the venue in their numbers and overpowered the security.

“They broke through the gate into the Convocation square where the bags of rice was to be shared.

All these polices on palliatives and conditional cash transfers must STOP. Nigerians are not beggers.
The government must learn how to empower and equip it's citizens with the right skills, trade and education to enable them to be financially independent.

Sad. This is what APC has finally reduced Nigeria to. graduates and undergraduates are now dying while trying to get a cup of rice
