Police Fire Teargas As UNILAG Students Protest Over Hike In School Fees by Kayzz34(op): 1:59pm On Sep 06, 2023

Pandemonium broke out at University road leading to the University of Lagos state this morning, September 6, after men of the Nigerian Police fired teargas to disperse students of the University of Lagos protesting a hike in their school fees.

Members of the National Association of Nigerian Students had announced plans to protest against the recent hike in tuition fees in the school on September 6.

Two protesters were on Wednesday, arrested at the University of Lagos Junction while protesting a fee hike at the institution.

The two students, identified as Femi Adeyeye and Philip Olatinwo, were arrested by policemen and put in a police van stationed in the area.

“They mobilised policemen from many stations,” Adeyeye said in a distress message sent to our correspondent, sharing another video of himself and Philip in the van.

Another protester, Bayo, told our correspondent that policemen fired tear gas at them and many students that had gathered, dispersed.

“Many students have fled the scene. I’m hiding somewhere. Femi and Philip are inside the Black Maria. They have not moved them to anywhere,” Bayo said.

A video shared with our correspondent showed some of the protesters carrying placards as they ran from the tear gas said to have been fired by the police.

The state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, has not responded to calls and text messages sent by our correspondent as of the time of filing this report.

It is only in Nigeria will students be protesting perceived injustice in the campus but the brunt must be felt by people who have nothing to do with the campus while their lecturers move freely within the campus

I'm in support of moderate increase in federal higher institution

Higher institution paying less than 30k (barely 40 dollars) as school fees is not sustainable

During my time in Yabatech I paid 19,200 in one of the year this is not scalable else there will be strike every month

UNILAG? Police should shoot each and every one of them. Don’t pity any of them. The suffer they supported is here to stay. Anyone who will protest against hike in electric tariff, school fees, fuel etc should be shoot immediately.

What amuses me about the nonsense currently happening in Nigeria's political space is even the people who have nothing to gain from a thief being in power are happily supporting the thief, maybe because of tribal affiliations.

Everybody go suffer am; Atikulators, Obi supporters, Batstards......all of una go suffer the useless choices you make and your country will keep going round and round and round and round cheesy

The students were not informed...

The Opposition has finally and firmly been buried by the Tribunal... You protest at your own peril.

You accept the decrees and policies, or go and die!

Lol, I thought Obi's vote was reduced in Lagos so as to bridge the loss margin of Tinubu.
If majority especially youths which are the demograph advocated for him, don't you think students of this institution would have supported him the more, but now that court ruled against him, everyone connected to the winner in anyway, even when they opposed such winner must be killed, molested and bruised according to you??
Most of you do not really want a better nation, you are only seeking for what to gloat about.
We told you, you must suffer, e pain am, etc are all you want not a different system.
