UNILAG Shut Down Over Students' Protest

The University of Lagos has been closed down following protest by students over the death of their colleague, a female student of the institution.

The female was said to have been electrocuted on Tuesday by a high tension cable in front of Sodeinde Hall of residence on the campus.

An ambulance was called to take her to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH), but she died on the way before the ambulance conveying her could reach the hospital.
