 The Federal College of Education, YOLA, has been shut down by the management. This is following students unrest in the early hours of Tuesday over water scarcity in the college. According to the management, the closure became necessary to avoid the breakdown of law and order in the institution, also to prevent miscrans from taking advantage of the situation to cause destruction of facilities in the college. The problem is said to have started when the industrial borehole, which provided water to over 5,000 students broke down, bringing about a serious water shortage in the school. He said that so. He is in the interim right now. The level of concern has gone back on now. He assured me that in the morning, four talks of water will come into the college. And within a short period of time, he told me that at 12 noon today, the management will fix the generator. Only yesterday, the college received information that one of its industrial boreholes broke down. And immediately, the Works and Services Department was asked to fix the problem. Equally, the provost directed that the college water tanker be deployed to argument the problem of water shortage occasioned by the breakdown of that industrial borehole. The college has other boreholes, but given the size of our students on campus, the other smaller boreholes could not meet the water needs. Hence, the decision that the water tanker should argument while efforts are being made to fix the industrial borehole.
