File Photo: Protesting university studentsStudents of all state-owned tertiary institutions across Osun state went on rampage on Monday to protest an alleged hike in the school fees by the government and the management of the institutions.
The students who trooped out in large numbers moved from the popular Olaiya busstop to the state Secretariat, Abeere where they blocked vehicular movement in and out of the premises.
Three of the students however, sustained injuries when the police attempted to disperse them by throwing tear gas in their direction.
Inspite of the heavy security presence, the students marched to the governor’s office where they were received by his Senior Special Adviser on Tertiary Institutions, Bursary, Prof Grace Akinola and the Commissioner for Education, Omotunde Young.
