Students of the University of Port-Harcourt are currently protesting the death of their colleague, a female final year student of Theater Arts who died yesterday.
According to information the students have barricaded the East-West road and have chased away all medical officials at the University of Port-Harcourt Teaching Hospital and locked up the entrance gate.
The students blamed the death of their colleague on the negligence of the hospital officials and said over 20 students of the university have died in the past as a result of this negligence and carelessness on the side of the doctors and nurses serving in the school owned hospital, UPTH.
Even after the School Management collect medical fees from students that the school and the hospital still do not care about the health of the students of the institution
One of the leaders of the protest, Miss Judith Oyila who is a final year student of Theatre Art said, “We are angry because we have lost another of our student again in UPTH, a 200 level student of Theatre Art.”
“She died because of neglect by the doctors and nurses in that hospital. How could it be that a student slumped and students rushed her to UPTH but the doctors left her for over six hours without treatment and the poor girl died?”
“We want the world to hear the injustice that we are facing here even in the hand of the doctors in our institution’s hospital. The doctors abandoned her without treatment.”
“They gave excuses that do not worth it: saying no bed to keep her, no fuel, no ambulance until she died. The Doctors forgot that we pay for health.”
“We want the government to sanction the school and UPTH for this, as well compel them to do a review of their policies as it concerns students health.”

Post-UTME Should Be Scrapped, NANS Tells FG

The National Association of Nigerian Students, on Sunday urge the Federal Government and the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board to stop the post-Unified Tertiary Matriculations Examinations being conducted by tertiary institution.
According to the policy, which was adopted on July 14 at JAMB’s 2015 Combined Policy Meeting, candidates of universities with surplus applicants for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination would be reassigned to other universities with lower number of applicants than their capacities.
The Federal Government, on July 28, however, overruled the policy after protests were sparked off in parts of the country.
But the President of NANS, Tijani Usman, said, “We have a larger number of students applying to institutions. JAMB has the prerequisite to say they are changing the institution of choice. Ordinarily, when one sits JAMB, the availability is first and second choice.
“Most institutions will take only those who apply to the school as their first choice without considering second-choice candidates. If JAMB is doing that, it means they are trying to help most of our people. The board has a statute that establishes it and once the body offers a candidate admission, every university has to comply.”
