Gunmen Shoot a UNILAG Philosophy Student in the Head

 
You all remembered me mentioning this the night this incident happened but due to few unverified details, I kept mute. Well, the tory is that a UNILAG student was reportedly shot in the head yesterday by unidentified gunmen at  Jaja Hall area of the university on Monday. Fortunately, the student who was identified as Sapara, a final year student of Philosophy, had his face covered in blood instead of being dead after the bullet scraped the side of his head.

He was subsequently taken to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Idi-Araba, and official report have it that he is in a stable condition. The incident had however led to chaos as students were seen running in different directions after the gunshot was heard.


A student mentioned seeing a car speed off after the shooting, noting that the perpetrators might have carried out the attack from there.

The Dean of Students’ Affairs of the University, Prof. Olukayode Amund, has also confirmed that Sapara was indeed shot and currently recuperating at LUTH, stating that investigations had begun to unravel the circumstances surrounding the attack, after which requisite actions would be taken.

When asked whether the attack was carried out by cultists, Amund noted that though it was not yet confirmed, it was a likely possibility. According to him, only cultists are known to carry out operations of this nature.

Well we continued our exams today like nothing happened.


May God help us (AMEN)
