Ibadan – Medical students of the University College Hospital, Ibadan in Oyo State, are currently protesting at the office of the Chief Medical Director of the institution over the non-availability of power and water.
As the protest continues, the Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu and CMD, Jesse Otegbayo, are also holding a meeting with stakeholders at the Conference Room of the institution to fashion out a solution to the epileptic power supply.
PUNCH Online reports that the UCH has been in darkness since October 2024, making over 100 days as of today (Monday).
The students displayed placards with different inscriptions such as, “+100 Days of Darkness: Save UCH; Save ABH Hall; Save Falade Hall; Give Us Light; This Is Not How We Want To Live; Medical School Is Hard Enough- Give Us Light; All We Are Saying, Give Us Light among others.”
Samuel said, “No light, no water. We shall continue this protest until our demands are met.”
