The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the deputy bursar was allegedly barred from contesting for the vacant position of a substantive bursar on account of his physical disability.
The protesters who converged at the popular Tombia Roundabout where they staged their protest were led by the State Chairman of Persons Living with Disabilities, PLWD, Mr Eric Ikilowei.
