Students of the Obafemi Awolowo University Ile-Ife, Osun State on Wednesday protested the arrest of their colleagues by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The students stormed the EFCC office in Ibadan, Oyo State a day after the anti-graft agency arrested some students of the institution for alleged financial crimes.
The protesting students carried various placards, expressing disappointment at the action of the anti-graft agency.
Some of the inscriptions on the placards read, “I am a medical student, not a Yahoo boy,” “Why remove the CCTV cameras if you are armed robbers,” “Criminals trying to arrest criminals,” among others.
At the EFCC Ibadan office, operatives of the anti-graft commission barricaded their premises with watertight security.
