Hunger Strike in UNILAG

The students of the University of Lagos Students on Sunday shut down all the shops and cafeterias on campus to protest the exorbitant prices of consumables and other materials.
 This is the new price list that the students want
Pure water: #5
Plastic drink:#100
Chicken and chips:#300
Food: Extremely affordable
Viju Chocolate:#120
Printing: Black and white-#10 per page, Coloured: #30 per page
Biro: #20
Today is the third day and the students are not relenting in their struggle to win this fight. On the part of the traders their major reason for selling at exorbitant prices has been attributed to the high cost of shops which ranges from #250,000 - #500,000.
