Scores of students of the Federal Polytechnic Offa, Kwara State have staged a peaceful rally against banditry, kidnapping, rape, drug abuse, and other vices plaguing Nigeria.
The students also kicked against indecent dressing, cybercrime, cultism, thuggery, and corruption in high places.
The rally was sponsored by the Mass Communication Department of the institution.
The placard-wielding protesters took the rally at the Ojoku road main campus polytechnic.
The placards read in part: “Say no to social vices,” “no to corruption,” “no to indecent dressing,” “no banditry,” “no to rape,” and “no to cultism.”
The institution’s Assistant Registrar, Pension, Jimoh Yusuf later on addressed the students in front of the Senate Building.
