Fierce demonstration have broken out on the streets of the university of Nigeria, Nsukka. A vexed crowd of about 5,000 students took to the streets, with placards and not a few of the school's property were destroyed. The V.C, Barto Okolo has gone into thin air. The demands are simple! It's either he reduces the fees, he goes or heads will roll. The demonstration is unprecedented and the last time this happened, was in 1996. This is the ALUTA SPIRIT and i am part of it!!! I will keep you posted!

Not surprising. I hope we embrace dialogue at the end and reach a good and favourable understanding. Peter shouldn't be robbed to pay Paul.

The V.C himself has refused to embrace dialogue, snubbing the SUG severaly. For peace to reign there has to be war!

The struggle took a very drastic turn... seriously everybody -the Union, the administration, lecturers and the students- dont know what direction everything is taking.

A student died as a result of a strugle that would av never be if that wicked man has atleast met with d SUG. May he pay with his own head for the life of the inocent student.

The V.C has really started on a bad note! How on earth will he assume office and start increasing school fees? Doesn't he know that all hands are not equal, not everybody was born with a silver spoon like him? He should have a re-think on this, before things get worst. Anyway the students are right, but they should not take it too far. May God help us!
