'When the police finally arrived, they said the students should lead in facing the gunmen.'

February 2, 2022Hundreds of students of the D.S. Adegbenro ICT Polytechnic, Itori, Ogun State, Wednesday blocked the Lagos-Abeokuta expressway after two of their colleagues were reportedly abducted by gunmen.
