The situation escalated as police and other security outfit attempted to restore order, but the students remained steadfast in their demonstration.
The UNIBEN students, fueled by the spirit of Aluta (a term associated with student activism), blocked the Benin-Ore Highway, causing disruptions to traffic flow. Their demands centered around the need for consistent electricity supply within the university premises.
