Students of the school revealed that armed robbers invaded the students' lodge last night and they a few students ended up victims of gunshots. Unconfirmed reports claimed that 2 students are currently dead from the gunshots.
Some students decided the best way to respond to the incident was to riot against the school and state government, blaming lack of security for their fellow students' deaths.
Students also lamented the fact that they pay N135,000 per session for new students and 107,000 for old students and they still don't have security or even a functioning hospital.
The rioting students went on the streets insisting on speaking with Governor Peter Obi. The students calmed down after the school Vice Chancellor addressed them about an hour ago.

Security is a worthy venture and our tertiary institutions ought to be well protected. Imagine sending your son or daugther to school and next thing you hear is that he or she is dead, that is bad for us. No human life is worth wasting no matter what the reasons are.
