An innocuous auto accident which occurred last Wednesday at the Ekiti
State University (EKSU) escalated into a full blown violence two days
after, which led to the total crippling of the university, and
eventually led to the indefinite closure of the
institution.
The rampaging students completely razed five cars, one
Toyota bus, the institution’s security van, a motorcycle; damaged the institution’s ambulance and vandalised five other cars.

The students also did not spare buildings as they
smashed windows of almost all the buildings on the university campus.
In the confusion, students also looted the institution’s Teaching and Research Farm on the
campus, carting away 3,500 chickens, 75 sheep and rams; 30 pigs, 25 rabbits, 10 goats and 120 crates of eggs.
The EKSU officials on the farm lamented that the students tore the bags
of feeds on the farm, spilled the contents and used the bags to cart
away their loot.
Students of the institution told newsmen on Saturday that an accident
injured a student, and that had triggered them to this action.
This is really a sad news and we wonder what have resulted to this mass
reaction from the students. We will update more as soon as we are better
informed.
