UNIABUJA students protest hike in tuition fee, other

Students of the University of Abuja have staged a peaceful protest at the entrance of the school against hike in tuition fee and other issues.

The students who brandished placards with different inscriptions are also reportedly kicking against the closure of the portal meant for the payment of school fees.

Pictures circulating on social media show most of the protesting UniAbuja students on face mask but with a disregard for social distancing amid the second wave of COVID-19 in Nigeria.

One twitter user said the students are protesting against the closure of school fees portal and 5k payment for late registration of courses.
