Photos: Ondo students protest school fees hike, demand reduction
The social and business activities in some parts of Akure, the Ondo State capital, were put to a halt on Tuesday following a protest staged by the students across the tertiary institutions in the state over the alleged increase in their school fees by the state government.
The students mostly from the Adekunle Ajasin University Akungba Akoko and Ondo State University of Science and Technology, Okitipupa barricaded the popular Oba Adesida road, causing traffic logjam for several hours.
Both the AAUA and OSUSTECH had been shut indefinitely for over a month following series of protests on their campuses by the students, who were demanding the reduction of their school fees.
