Just In : Polytechnic Students Go On Rampage, Protest Against ‘Theft Of Private Parts
The students who went berserk shut down the school and blocked the Galadima Aminu Way, one of the major highways, passing in front of the polytechnic gate, leading to the concentration of banks in Yola, the state capital.
Apartment Students of the Adamawa State Polytechnic on Monday went on rampage after alleging theft of the “private parts of six male students.”
The students who went berserk shut down the school and blocked the Galadima Aminu Way, one of the major highways, passing in front of the polytechnic gate, leading to the concentration of banks in Yola, the state capital. They also set fire on tyres to keep away motorists. However, a detachment of security operatives, comprising the military, police and civil defence was drafted to quell the uproar.
They reportedly went violent because the police and polytechnic authorities prevented them from lynching the suspected “private parts thieves.” Some eyewitnesses told SaharaReporters that some two strangers came to the polytechnic and had handshakes with students, after which their private parts suddenly shrank to the size of a matchstick. The spokesperson for the polytechnic, Albert Matilah, confirmed the incident saying, “we woke up to this unfortunate situation; actually there have been rumours that a criminal syndicate that specialises in snatching private parts of individuals was in town. “And this morning, six of our students have complained that their private parts have gone. Right now, the culprits have been apprehended and surrendered to the police.”
