Again JAMB Candidates Protest At Markudi

There was pandemonium at the University of
Agriculture, Makurdi, Benue State, Wednesday
morning following a fight between candidates
trying to register for JAMB and security
operatives.
Trouble started when over 2,000 candidates
waiting to register for JAMB felt frustrated
with registration officials whom they claimed
were showing “favoritism.”
The candidates were provided with just four
computers to complete their registration,
hence some of them started conniving with
the officers monitoring the process in order
to complete their registration to the
disadvantage of others, DAILY POST has
gathered.
According to an eyewitness, who wished not
to be mentioned, the aggrieved candidates in a
bid to express their anger pounced on some
of the security men.
The fight resulted to the pulling down of the
door to the ICT room of the university.
The eyewitness said, “Students started fighting
with security operatives due to the frustrating
registration process, the uniform of some of
the officers were torn.
“A soldier was beaten to coma and as he
regained consciousness, he took away three
students.
“As I speak with you, Army personnel are
currently trooping into UniAgric.”
