 Protest Struck Aba as Trailer Knocks Down Abia Poly Student


Tension swamped the city of Aba as students of Abia State Polytechnic took to the streets in protest over a tragic death of a female graduating student of the institution.


The incident occurred when the student was crossing the busy Aba Owerri Road. Bystanders recount that a tricycle operator knocked her down and fled the scene before a  speeding trailer subsequently ran her over, leading to her untimely demise.


Frustrated with what they perceive as a lack of safety measures on the roads, the students decided to staged a protest on the busy Aba Owerri highway.


The protest quickly gained momentum, with students chanting slogans and calling on relevant authorities  to investigate the incident and bring the tricycle operator to justice.


Students are also urging the government to prioritize the construction of pedestrian bridges and speed bumps in accident-prone areas.
