7 Secondary Schl Students In Osun Arrested For Rioting Over Govt Inability To Pay WAEC Fee

7 secondary school students in Osun State have been remanded in prison over a riot action they took after the state government refused to pay their West Africa Examination Council (WAEC) fees.

The students reportedly unleashed terror on the workers of Orisun FM Radio station, Ile-Ife last week Thursday, February 4.
A condition had been attached to the payment of the WAEC fees by the government. The students were required to have made four credit passes during their mock examination before they can qualify. Unfortunately, the arrested students were unable achieve this.

Are they trying to tell me only 7 students unleashed all this mayhem? Hmmm!!
On a lighter note, I think the screen of that road safety vehicle may have already been smashed before the riot.
