According to the student, “They still went into an office, and attacked a lecturer with Economics department Professor David Okorofor. The lecturer teaches mathematics in the department.
“They made attempts to collect the lecturer’s phone and other belongings before students who saw them earlier raised the alarm, then security men within the school went after them.
“Due to fear and anxiety, the already scheduled lecture in our class was put off on Wednesday because the lecturer in charge called to tell us he won’t be in class again.
“By the time we came out, others were already leaving the school premises.”
Another student who also chose to lie low alleged that students living within and outside the school premises now leave in fear.
He said cultists now attack students and anyone at sight at will.
The Police command had on Tuesday assured of their readiness to provide adequate security for those living in the area.
