Students of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB) have taken to the streets to protest against lack of security in the areas surrounding the school.
According to unverified reports on Twitter, a student was shot dead by the Police during the protest.
The students complained of incessant robbery and rape by hoodlums in the school environment.

We just wanted a peaceful protest, where we could vent our anger at the kind of attitude the mgt showed towards our insecurity #saveFunaab

This is coming less than 24 hours after the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) invited the Vice Chancellor of the university, Professor Olusola Oyewole alongside the University Bursar, Moses Ilesanmi over an alleged case of Abuse of Office and misappropriation of funds reported against the Management, the University Pro Chancellor and some members of the Governing Council.
According to the petition submitted to the EFCC by the Concerned Stakeholders of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, it was alleged that the Pro Chancellor and the Vice Chancellor engaged in an “unbridled corruption and betrayal of public trusts”.
