Fayose declares 3-day prayers for repose of dead students
Gov. Ayo Fayose has declared
three-day statewide prayers for the repose of the souls of students of Ekiti
State University (EKSU), Ado-Ekiti, who died in a road mishap on Monday night.
Fayose made the declaration
on Tuesday while on a sympathy visit to the Ekiti State University Teaching
Hospital (EKSUTH).
The death toll in the
accident has risen to seven from the initial five.
He said that the prayers were
meant to forestall a recurrence of such incident.
He expressed regret that the
accident claimed a total of seven students while the two remaining occupants of
the vehicle were still battling for life.
A NAN correspondent who
visited the hospital and the university, observed a gloomy atmosphere and a
feeling of despondency as no one was ready to comment on the development.
The fatal accident occurred
in front of the university.
