Students tackle FUNAAB’s medical staff over female colleague’s death



Academic activities were disrupted on Monday on the campus of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Ogun State, as hundreds of students of the institution protested the death of their colleague, Maria Atere.


The students, who were led by the Chairman of National Association of Nigerian Students in Ogun State,  Dotun Opaleye, blocked the entrance of the school, as early as 6am.

During the protest, which lasted for about two hours, the students accused the medical personnel of the institution of negligence, which according to them, led to the death of the student.

Our correspondent gathered that Maria, a 400-Level student of Plant Physiology and Crop Production, lost her life on Sunday while she was heading for the campus on a commercial motorcycle, popularly known as okada.
