Some students of the University of Abuja on
Monday blocked the ever busy Airport road to
protest the death of a female student. The
development has resulted to a major gridlock on
that axis.
The 200 level student, whose name is yet to be
known, was reportedly knocked down by a driver
on Sunday night while she was evading some
robbers.
It was gathered that the incident happened in
front of the school’s permanent site gate.
The protesting students, in their hundreds,
reportedly blamed the school authority and the
Federal Government for not providing pedestrian
bridges, to hinder such accident.
As at press time, the school management is yet
to comment on the incident.
