From a student:

AUCHI POLY, Here we come, God what type of country is this, am only having 5 papers to round up with my exams and all this are happening in my school, students are rioting because they are not allowed to write exams in the sense that they’ve not paid school fees. As at now they’ve killed many of our students, burning some of our lectures cars and some of the exams hall. We don’t even know if the exams are still going to be completed or strike is going to fall in. God have mercy upon us your children. FEDERAL POLYTECHNIC, AUCHI.
