DSS Operatives Arrest, Whisk Away OAU Students For Protesting Against Nyesom Wike
- By AbdulFattah Robiu
Operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) have reportedly arrested two students of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, Osun State, following a protest against the visit of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, to the institution.
In a video obtained by OSUN DEFENDER, the students, whose identities have not been disclosed, were said to have staged a peaceful demonstration by displaying a cardboard at the Oduduwa Hall on campus where Wike was delivering his keynote speech.
Eyewitnesses reported that the protest was met with swift intervention by DSS operatives, who apprehended the students and transported them to an undisclosed location.
The circumstances surrounding the arrests remain unclear, and efforts to obtain official statements from the university authorities and the DSS have been unsuccessful as of the time of this report.
Meanwhile, OSUN DEFENDER recalls that Wike had visited the university on Thursday to speak on the topic “Nigeria of Our Dreams,” at the Oduduwa Hall of the university campus.
