The picture below shows a young man who was shot dead by police during a peaceful protest staged in Ikole, Ekiti State, over the relocation of the site of a yet to be established Federal University (one of the 9 new universities the Federal Government is planning to establish) from Ikole Ekiti to Oye Ekiti.
The Governor of the state Kayode Fayemi, had announced Ikole-Ekiti as the site for the new Fed. University, only for the Federal Government to later announce Oye-Ekiti as the location, prompting a protest from some students and indigenes of the State.
The incident happened last week thursday and four other people were said to have been killed during the protest.
