Students have also joined the protest to demand that government takes action to end the ongoing strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities.

Recall that the protest has gained international attention as countries such as United Kingdom, Sweden and France have urged the Nigerian Government to listen to the demand of the people.

The Nigerian Government has also been urged to stop the brutalisation and arrest of peaceful protesters.
