Students Protest Against No Tuition, No Exams Policy

The Students of  College of Education, Ipetu Ijesa Campus of the Osun State University protested the new policy of no tuition no examination which was introduced on Monday.

It was reported that the students started their first semester examination and the new policy prevented many of them from writing the examination.

It was also reported, that some of the students were prevented from writing some courses on Monday but the students rejected the policy on Tuesday  and interruted the examination.

One of the student reported that some other angry students locked the main gate of the university and prevented lecturers from going out after the protest  had started.

Some of the students reported that they could not pay because the state government was owing their parents salaries. They said the schools used to allow them to write exams and after that, students would pay but it was surprising  that  the policy was now changed when the state government had stopped paying salaries.
