By Musliudeen Adebayo

Protest is currently ongoing among students of the University of Ibadan in Oyo State over introduction of a 10-hour daily electricity supply within the campus, DAILY POST reports

It was gathered that the institution introduced a 10-hour daily electricity supply with effect from yesterday (Tuesday).

The new policy was contained in a memo issued by the department of works and maintenance of the institution.

The memo, dated 16th July, 2024, was signed by the Director of Works, Engineer O.A. Adetolu.

The letter reads, “Effective immediately, the Vice-Chancellor has approved 10-hour daily electricity supply on Campus as follows: 1. Day Time: 08 a.m. 02 p.m. (6 hours) 2. Night Time: 10 p.m. 02 a.m. (4 hours) Kindly adhere strictly to the approved schedule. Thank you”.

DAILY POST, however, gathered that there is currently outrage within the campus.

A student, who asked not to be named, told DAILY POST that students have started protesting since yesterday night (Tuesday).

He added that the protest continued till this morning.

The student said, “There was a protest yesterday night that lasted till about 2 am today.

“The University of Ibadan introduced the notice that it would start rationing a 10-hour electricity distribution on campus.

“This follows an outrageous increment in fees, introduction of inexplicable and duplicated fees like utility levy, which is 20,000, among other unconscionable fees.”
