This news was confirmed as stated by DAILY POST NEWSPAPER
The sudden closure of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, UNN, claimed
first casualties Tuesday evening as several students of the institution
lost their lives in a multiple road accident.

EG NIGERIA gathered that the students, who were traveling home
after the University authorities ordered them out of hostels, met their
untimely death at the Nsukka-9th Mile Express way.

Although the Enugu State Police Command put the death figure at
three, eyewitness account said the number is higher.

In a statement by the spokesman of the Enugu State Police Command,
Mr. Ebere Amaraizu, DSP, he said “three persons have been confirmed
dead while five others sustained various degrees of injuries”.

He added that “the auto crash, involves a diesel truck with registration
number AWK 311 XB, which is believed to have lost control as a result
of suspected brake failure and had hit two buses with registration
numbers UWN 406 XA and UWN 57 XA and also a motorcycle.

“The injured are being attended to at our Saviour Hospital, 9th Mile
corner Ngwo, while the dead bodies are also deposited at the same
hospital mortuary”.

A student, who was traveling when the accident occurred blamed the
University authority for the development.

“It was very sad to see our fellow students die like that; we were
chased out of school and now they have also been forced out of the
world. This would not have occurred if we were not ordered out of
school”, he lamented.

EG NIGERIA recalls that the University was suddenly shut down on
Monday, a move believed to have been aimed at averting a planned
riot by the students who had suffered acute water scarcity for over
three weeks.
