University of Nairobi students on Monday evening went on the rampage to protest the death of a fellow student.
The
student is said to have succumbed to his injuries after he was
allegedly beaten by guards manning the hostels last Wednesday. The irate
students set one of the abandoned hostels on fire during the Monday
evening protests.
Samuel Ayoma, a student leader, told
the Nation that the student was allegedly clobbered by guards who later
abandoned him at the Central Park, near the main campus.
“The guards claim the student was a goon, yet we know him as a fellow comrade,” said Mr Ayoma.
He said that the torched buildings were abandoned hostels commonly known as prefabs.
The
student, identified as Kytte Ondeng alias Ras, is said to have
succumbed to his injuries at a Nairobi hospital where he had been rushed
by Good Samaritans.
