Governor Amosun Of Ogun Stoned By Tasued Students As He Ran For Cover [See Photo]

The Ogun State Governor, Senator
Ibikunle Amosun while on a
campaign visit to Tai Solarin
University Of Education, Ijebu-ode
on Thursday, 29th January was
attacked by some angry students of
the State-owned university who
appeared not to have forgiven him
over his numerous attempts to
initially scrap the institution.
On his arrival to the institution,
TASUED students on campus who
became aware of his presence
immediately trooped out in large
numbers.
Initially, it appeared to the
Governor and his campaign team
the students had gathered to cheer
them.
There was a wind of change when
some students hurriedly brought out
sachets water (pure water) and in a
jiffy, it became a chorused act as
other furious students joined in
stoning Governor Ibikunle Amosun
with various objects they could lay
their hands on.
The Governor became ruffled before
he was able to run to safety and
quickly drove off with his convoy.
Before now, Amosun had been
against the existence of the
university, giving reason that two
state universities were too much for
his administration to handle.
This led to various protests by
students of TASUED, as well as the
death of a student leader, Com.
Tunji Fashina.
Also, Nigerian Universities
Commission, NUC as a result of
Amosun’s refusal to adequately fund
TASUED delisted courses offered in
the university from 48 to 23.
Just recently, Accounting course got
delisted as a course in TASUED.
This development has left many
students frustrated.
DAILY POST has gathered that
TASUED Vice Chancellor, Prof.
Oluyemisi Obilade is seen as an
accomplice as she remains
undisturbed with the various
happenings in the school system.
