This is why students are protesting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have spent over three years for just one semester owing to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/06\/25\/suspected-murderer-of-super-tv-ceo-was-last-seen-before-covid-19-lockdown-lecturer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">COVID-19 lockdown<\/a>, but largely due to the various strikes embarked upon by our lecturers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe keep paying for our accommodation, school fees, and other expenses. More so, we are getting old and by the time we graduate, we can\u2019t find jobs because of age.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAbout seven of our students are currently receiving treatment in different hospitals in Jos because of the injuries they sustained during the protest. Some of them were asthmatic patients who could not stand the tear gas fired by security operatives to disperse the students.<\/p>\n<p>Another student, Pam Bulus, decried the incessant strike by lecturers, adding that the development had stagnated their academic progress.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNobody has come to address us on the issue and we feel this is not right. We demand proper explanation from the management on why we cannot start our examinations today. We are tired of this back and forth; our academic journey is suffering and this is not good for us,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The state Police Public Relations Officer, Ubah Ogaba, said policemen deployed in the scene were civil, polite and firm with the students.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe don\u2019t have any report of police killing anyone,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Also, a statement by the troops of Operation Safe Haven issued by one Major Ishaku Takwa, said the protest was unnecessary.<\/p>\n<p>It read, \u201cSecurity agencies professionally dispersed the protesting students who barricaded the major road linking the Jos metropolis with other states, causing traffic jam to commuters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOperation Safe Haven wishes to also draw the attention of students and indeed members of the public to the ban on any kind of protest by group or persons in the state by the Nigeria Police while the curfew imposed by the Plateau State Government is still enforced. Therefore, the protest by the students was unnecessary.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt should be noted that hoodlums would have infiltrated the protest and cause mayhem that would have disrupted the fragile peace on the plateau, but the timely intervention of security agencies averted the ugly situation..\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some of students of the Plateau State Polytechnic reportedly fainted and others injured due to tear gas canisters fired by security operatives who stormed the Jos campus of the institution to disperse protesters.
