The studentss of the school didn’t take the news of their colleagues being injured too likely as they led a protest to the place of the Soun of Ogbomoso’s, Oba Jimoh Oyewunmi.

The students complained about frequent criminal activities in the university.

Ajibola said, “With the intervention of our respected school authorities, the aggrieved students and sympathisers were calmed, but they refused to hand over the man to the police. We ensured that the suspect was taken to the Soun’s palace. On getting to Iyana Owode, a police barricade obstructed and redirected our initial destination to Owode Ogbomoso Police Station. The police assured us that justice would be done.”
