UI students protest, block road over colleague’s death

Students of the University of Ibadan have blocked the Mokola-Oojo Road in the Oyo State capital, protesting the alleged death of a student.

Details of the student’s death remained sketchy as of the time of filing this report on Thursday morning.

It was however learnt that the student was said to have suffered an asthmatic attack overnight but was allegedly not attended to at the school clinic until he died.

Tension has enveloped the institution’s gate and environs while shop owners in Agbowo market have stayed off the area.
