Female student led H.I.T & the Destruction of 49 vehicles in Adeyemi College of Education, Ondo

The Provost of the Adeyemi College of Education, Ondo in Ondo State, Prof. Adeyemi Idowu, on Tuesday said that a female student of the institution, a.k.a

Idayat, allegedly led scores of her colleagues to vandalise his car and 48 other vehicles parked within the school premises when they went on the rampage on Monday.

The students had on Monday protested against the alleged mysterious deaths of some of their colleagues in recent time, which led to them to vandalised the provost’s office, his car, 48 other vehicles and other structures within the campus.

Prof Idowu explained that he was holding a management meeting when the students stormed his office.

He said, “We had earlier on Monday held a meeting with the students’ union executives where we agreed to hold an interdenominational service to pray on the alleged mysterious deaths.

“They claimed that 20 of their colleagues had died but they cannot mention more than four people who had lost their lives in the last six months and there is nothing mysterious about the deaths.

“While the meeting was ongoing, I suddenly saw a young lady, who we later identified as Idayat, armed with an iron, went straight to my official car and started vandalising it while she directed others to carry similar action on vehicles of other members of staff.

“She occasionally ordered her colleagues to haul stones at my office whenever she sensed that someone was peeping though the window.”

The students had during the protest vandalised classrooms, eateries, and banks on the campus. They also blocked the Ondo-Ore Expressway and made bonfire on the road, which resulted in gridlock.
