University students took to the streets for the second straight day in protest against the strike embarked by the Academic Staff Union of Universities.

Tagging them ‘The University of Streets’, the protesters walked along the Ugbowo-Lagos expressway in Benin-City.

The walk was expected to terminate at the Ring-Road area of the city.

Other students and concerned Nigerians were scheduled to join the students in protest at Ring Road.

The students had taken their protest to the King Square area of the city, demanding an end to the strike.

They said they are tired of staying at home, cut off from their academic pursuits.

While they appealed to the relevant authorities to look into the issues that led to the strike for a resolution to be reached, the students lamented watching their dream of graduating suffer stagnation.
