A student of from the Gidan Waya, Kafancha, College of Education, Kaduna State, was allegedly killed during the protest in Kaduna on Monday.

The union alleged that Governor Nasir El-Rufai had ordered the police to stop the protest.

The association commiserated with the family members of the deceased and prayed to God to give them the fortitude to bear the loss, adding that, an injury to one is an injury to all.

The union, therefore, gave the government of Kaduna state two weeks' ultimatum to reverse the ridiculous hike in the fee of the school.
