UNIBEN students protest over power outage, block Lagos-Benin expressway

Students of the University of Benin are staging a protest over a power outage that has been on for over three weeks and counting.

The students, who could not bear the resultant hardship from the outage any longer, decided to stage a protest on Wednesday morning by blocking the outbound route of the Lagos-Benin Expressway.

Before reporters were chased off by the protesters, some students who spoke to Channels Television behind cameras, said the stress has been unbearable.

All vehicles are now having to continue their journeys only on the inbound route of the expressway.

The main gate of the school is on a total shutdown whilst the demonstration continues.
