Scores of placard-carrying applicants on Friday morning stormed a Federal High Court in Lagos in continuation of their protest against the alleged plan by the Registrar of the Joint Admission Matriculation Board, Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, to stop then from sitting the entrance examination into the University of Lagos for this year’s admission.
The students, who came to court in two BRT vehicles, were led by one of their lawyers, Mr. Alex Ogedengbe.
As of the time of filing this report at 11.30am, counsel for the students had gone to the court’s registry to file a suit.
Another opposer of the enacted new JAMB admission policy, the President, Association of Tutorial School Operators of Nigeria, Mr. Sodunke Oludotun, who led the protest staged on Wednesday by the aggrieved parents and candidates, “We have decided to go to court. We will be in court on Friday. Mr. Femi Falana is aware. Our lawyer too is going to file the court process on Friday (Today).
“On Friday, all the students and their parents are following us to the court in Ikoyi. We are going to protest there. On our way to the court, we are going to block the Third Mainland Bridge before getting to the court.
“Our lawyer said all the people that heard of the case in the court were very angry when he went there today (Wednesday). It is annoying. That is one step we are going to take.”
He also said that the human rights activist and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mr. Femi Falana will be involved in the matter.
