A 21-year-old final year student named Chigozie, who was studying at Benson Idahosa University, tragically passed away allegedly due to negligence on the part of the school authorities. The student, identified as Bruno Chigozie Ezeonye, lost his life under circumstances that suggest negligence as a contributing factor.
According to reports, the incident occurred when the student collapsed while playing football on the school field on Tuesday, May 23. He was immediately rushed to the school clinic for medical attention. However, it is alleged that the student received no medical assistance for several hours, presumably due to the unavailability of necessary equipment at the clinic.
In a desperate attempt to save their friend's life, some of his colleagues attempted to transport him to a hospital. However, they encountered another obstacle as the school ambulance reportedly lacked fuel, further delaying the student's access to emergency medical care. Tragically, these delays ultimately resulted in the student's untimely demise.
Following the devastating news of the student's passing, fellow students at the university organized a protest to express their grievances and demand accountability. Regrettably, the protest escalated, leading to the reported vandalism of the school clinic and security post by enraged students.
