Ogun state
government under the leadership of Governor Ibikunle Amosun has shut down
entire activities of the Olabisi Onabanjo University Ago Iwoye after a peaceful
protest was staged at Oke Mosan about two weeks ago.
The governor
had banned all/any public gathering of student as a means of depriving them the
right to a peaceful protest, a totalitarian tool in a draconian political
system.
This act according to comrade Yemi Castro, should not be entertained as
he encouraged the student to fashion out another modality to make their plight
known not only to the present Ogun state fascist system, but every governor who
is nursing the discreet ambition to exploit scholarship as a political means of
achieving his personal-vested political shield.
Today being
Monday, these progressive students are supposed to lock down the school and go
to Oke-Imosan to display the histo-Biblical Jacob-versus-angel-like protest
until their demands are considerably met.
Will this anti-democratic,
anti-progressive “agba-iyaic” measure stop these youngstars from articulating
their demands?
The co-odinator
of the Committee for the Defence of Human Right CHDR( Ago Iwoye) has however appeal to students not to travel home. He implored
them resist all urge to travel.
“Tell your
parents that if you travel, you will come back to pay not just the same fees,
but more than that. That is the plan of the state government. Remain in school.
Let us collectively hold our ground. We are closer now to victory than ever .
