The
Nasa block of the Institute of Management and Technology, IMT, Enugu,
was on Tuesday night reportedly set ablaze by some aggrieved final year
students of the institution.
According
to report, the building went up in flames around 8:30pm, about two
hours after students finished examination for the day and despite the
prompt intervention of men of the Enugu State Fire Service, all the
answer scripts were burnt to ashes.
It
was gathered that the building may have been set ablaze by students of
the institution, who were angered by the nature of the examination time
table, which made them to be writing up to three courses in a day.
The
Police spokesman in Enugu State, Ebere Amaraizu, who confirmed the
incident, disclosed that three suspects have been arrested by the
operatives of Ogui Police Division, adding that the cause of the
incident is yet to be ascertained as there was no loss of lives.
However,
investigations into the incident have commenced in full scale just as
the presence of the police operatives and the fire service stopped
further escalations of the fire outbreak.
