In a video shared by the police, at least five (5) cars likely owned by the mediation team were seen damaged by the rioters, who threw rocks and stones on the vehicles parked at the premises.
“For over three months, staff of the Federal College of Education (Technical), Akoka locked out their Provost, depriving him use of his office,” Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, said in a statement.
“A team set up by the Minister of Education arrived the school today to mediate the ongoing impasse. However, staff of the college aided by students attacked the team from Abuja, damaging over five vehicles and the Provost’s official quarters.”
“Not done, the rioting staff and students also blocked all entrances in and out of the college. The police arrived the scene and restored normalcy after being attacked with stones and sachets of water by the rioters.”
“Meanwhile, thirty-two suspects have been arrested while men of the Nigeria Police Force from Area Command, Surulere remain on ground to ensure that the restored peace remains intact.”
