In the early hours of today, students at the College of Science and Technology in Yola staged a peaceful protest to draw attention to the persistent lack of electricity and water supply on campus.

The demonstration, led by hostel residents, was sparked by two weeks of continuous power outages, which have severely impacted the availability of water on campus.

The protesters called on the Adamawa State Government and the college’s management to urgently address the situation.

The lack of electricity has not only deprived students of access to drinking water but also hindered their ability to carry out basic daily activities, such as bathing. In previous instances, students have had to venture outside the school premises in search of water, but the current situation has reached a breaking point, prompting today’s demonstration.

The students are urging the authorities to take immediate action to restore both power and water supplies to the campus
