Students of the University of Lagos are protesting the high cost of living on campus. It’s
gathered that the peaceful protest started yesterday, as the students
bemoaned the high cost of food and other basic items on campus, saying
it is disheartening that students are paying higher for food and other
consumables than their prices outside campus. The cost of making
photocopies is also said to be too expensive for an academic
environment.
According
to a citizen reporter who seeks anonymity,”Imagine, we students are
buying sachet water at N10 per sachet, Indomie super pack sold for N60
in town is N70 here, same as Indomie hungry man size, which is N100
everywhere except in my school where it goes for N110. Also soft drinks
in plastic bottles such as Viju,Fanta,Pepsi are sold for N120 per bottle
instead of its supposed retail price of N100.
