Following the recent flag off of the distribution of 2 bags of 7.5kg rice and N5,000 each as palliative to students of the Nasarawa State University, Keffi (NSUK).
Three students have been confirmed de@d in a stampede at the school’s convocation square, where they were asked to come and pick up bags of rice sent as palliatives by the state government.
The distribution of the bags of rice for the students took a different turn as the place became rowdy, and students forced their way into the premises and started carting away as many as their hands could hold.
The rush resulted in a stampede, with many students trampling on one another.
