UNIBEN STUDENTS PREPARING OF A PEACEFUL PROTEST
Sunday the 19th of July The university of Benin lost one of her own to a van driven by a military man along the Benin-Lagos express way.
The Sunday that started like any other with students getting dressed for service, had a little difference because it was within the celebration Id-El-Fitr. the Sunday however ended in a bitter memory as 2 girls Who were crossing the Benin-Lagos express way (MAINGATE) at about 10:15am were knocked down.
Sadly, one of the girls died in the hospital. The vehicle hit both girls and one of them landed very badly making her chances of survival very slim said an eye witness. the other girl was thrown into a nearby waterlogged area and the man, an eye witness said, ran out of the vehicle to pull the other girl out of the water before she was taken to the hospital for immediate treatment.
Both girls are 200 level philosophy students of the Faculty of Arts University of Benin. and the girl who died was HALIM RITA AWELE.
The SUG UNIBEN is going on a peaceful protest this morning to morn HALIM and to also ask the GOVERNMENT to take measures that will prevent this kind of tragedy in the future. speed breaks and probably a flyover might not b a bad idea.
may her gentle soul rest in perfect peace. amen
