Over 20 students of University of Nigeria, Nsukka lost their lives on June 2nd in a fatal accident along Nsukka-Enugu expressway near 9th Mile, Ngwo, Enugu after the bus they were traveling in was hit by a tanker. The students were heading to their various homes after they were told to vacate their school for two weeks following protests in two campuses - Enugu & Nsukka - of the school.
Before they were asked to leave school, the students had protested the bad state of ancillary services in the school. They said their was no water or light, making life difficult for them. The VC in response, suspended academic activities for two weeks and students were forced out of the school with military presence. This set were going home when they met their untimely death. So sad. May their souls rest in peace. I have pics from the accident but I'm sure you guys have seen enough!
