A 21-year-old final year student named Bruno Chigozie Ezeonye from Benson Idahosa University has tragically passed away due to alleged negligence by the school authorities.
The incident occurred when Bruno collapsed while playing football on the school field on Tuesday, May 23. He was immediately rushed to the school clinic for medical attention.
According to reports, Bruno remained unattended at the clinic for several hours due to the unavailability of necessary medical equipment. Despite attempts by his fellow students to transfer him to a hospital, the school ambulance did not have fuel, resulting in a significant delay. Tragically, Bruno succumbed to his condition during this time.
The news of Bruno’s untimely demise sparked outrage among the students, leading to a protest on the campus. As a result, there were reports of vandalism at the school clinic and security post during the demonstration.
