Though nobody died, students who spoke with The Nation yesterday, September 8 said the school authorities did not make proper arrangements for the examination.
One of the students said the examination was not properly organised, adding that computers were not insufficient and that they were delayed from 8 a.m till 9 p.m.
She said: “Honestly, more than 200 students slumped due to exhaustion and the lecturers did not care, as they were busy pushing us from one place to another. Some who came from distant places without relations in Anambra slept in the open and the fear is that no one knows if any of the slumped students died.”
Emmanuel Ojukwu, the director of information and public relations of the institution, denied the allegations saying that only 2 students slumped and were revived at the school’s clinic.
Ojukwu said one of the victims was an asthmatic patient who did not come with her medication, the second victim was in an accident earlier while the third victim was hungry.
He said that the university had 500 computers, while the exams ended by 5 p.m, adding that the place was organised and that the school is equal to the task.
