Some female students of Gregory University Uturu, Abia, on Sunday, July 9, 2023, staged a peaceful protest against the institution’s alleged negligence of duties in terms of provision of social amenities for learners.
In a video clip, the students protested to the Chancellor’s house to express their displeasure over the state of amenities in the school.
One of the protesters stated:
“The protest started from the girls’ hostel and then to the Chancellor’s house. We moved from there to the girls’ campus gate and ended it at the boys’ campus.
“We are protesting lack of amenities in the school. There have not been light in our hostels (female hostels) for two weeks. The protest is just to express our displeasure over the negligence of the school management”.
The aggrieved students also complained that despite paying exorbitant fees as tuition, their welfare has not been taken seriously by the concerned authorities.
The school management is yet to react to the matter at the time of filing this report.
