The female students of UniUyo match to protest for the school authority to provide adequate security in their hostels after a second robbery attack.
The female students living in the school’s hostel no longer feel safe after the series of robbery. According to a student, Joyce Jimm, the armed robbers came with P.O.S this time to rob students off their money.
