Breaking News: Protest In Ozoro Poly As Students Reject N5, 000 Covid 19 Fee by yungdynho(m): 10:53pm On Oct 09, 2020 |
Students of Delta State Polytechnic, Ozoro, have slammed the management for asking students to pay N5, 000 COVID-19 fee on their return to campus. Recall that schools were shut for months due to the COVID-19 pandemic but were recently reopened in Delta State for academic activities. At the time of filing this report, a massive protest is ongoing as the aggrieved students shut the main entrance to the campus, saying that the institution will remain shut until the directive is reversed and withdrawn. Addressing the protesters, Dio Oghale Emeka Rex, President of the Senate, National Association of Polytechnic Students (NAPS) said that they were not asking for a reduction but a total removal. He said: “They tried to implement the directive in the College of Education, Warri but it was reversed when we took our protests there. “I wrote to the Ozoro Polytechnic management but they rejected our letter. Students need palliatives and do not need to be told to pay N5, 000.” According to him, students will only pay if staff are asked to pay times three of the N5, 000 they are asking students to pay. Meanwhile, attempts by the police to appease the students failed as they vowed to pressurize the management to reverse this decision.

This is unbelievable. When I learnt that Obama wrote a book titled “The Audacity of Hope,” I immediately knew he was referring to a country in faraway western Africa. Unless we're trying to play politics with our emotions, what this students just did is wrong. They're expecting the school management to make provision for social amenities such as face shield, face mask, hand sanitizer and so on but they're not ready to make such a little sacrifice. How much is 5000? This over dependent mentality on government by our students need to be curtail. The government won't make provision for everything. This is a reasonable way of getting them acquainted with tax payments later in the foreseeable future. In Nigeria constitution, is this not what we called tax evasion? If it's still punishable under law, then the students should be thoroughly dealt with. God bless Nigeria! 1 Like 1 Share |
