Ondo State students, under the banner of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), have taken to the streets in a powerful display of frustration over the escalating insecurity plaguing the region. Hobnob News reports on the students’ outcry.
On Thursday, demonstrators, largely from Owo Polytechnic, staged a protest along Oba Adesida Road near the “A” Division in Akure. They blocked the thoroughfare, chanting “Enough is enough” and demanding immediate action from the government.
The students’ anger stems from the alarming frequency of kidnappings targeting their peers. They expressed deep concern over reports that kidnappers often proceed to kill their victims even after receiving ransom payments. The students’ protest highlights the growing sense of desperation and fear among young people in Ondo State.
