Students and a lecturer of the Adekunle Ajasin University Akungba in Ondo state recently ran for their lives after some of the students in their class came in dressed as terrorists for a presentation they were having on terrorism.
The students who dressed in military camouflage and had their faces covered while carrying “guns”, came into the lecture room for their presentation.
The lecturer and the students said they thought they were under attack, making everyone scamper for safety.
A student of the school who gave an insight into what happened wrote..
The management of the Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba- Akoko (AAUA), Ondo State, on Sunday ordered the closure of the institution until further notice following a fatal accident outside campus that claimed the lives of students.
The Akungba accident occurred on Saturday, Jan 23. A cement-laden truck rammed into shops opposite the institution, resulting in the death of at least nine, 3 of whom are related.
According to Joe Igbokwe, a former spokesman for the Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, the mother of the three siblings killed in the crash also died of shock on Saturday after hearing the sad news about her children.
Students of AAUA came out to protest the death of their colleagues following the accident and this led to an order to close the institution for the meantime.
The directive to close down the school was contained in a circular issued by the acting Registrar, Mr Opeoluwa Akinfemiwa.
The circular read,
“Further to our circular of Saturday, January 23, 2021 and the attendant protest by students on Sunday, January 24, 2021, the acting Vice-Chancellor, Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko, Prof. Olugbenga Ige, on behalf of the Senate, has directed that the university be closed with immediate effect until further notice.”
“All students are therefore advised to vacate the campus latest by 6pm today, Sunday, January 24, 2021.”
