Twenty students of the University of Calabar (Unical) were on Saturday rushed to the university’s teaching hospital following a stampede at an examination hall at the campus.
The stampede occurred where the students were billed to write the General Studies and Communication Skills (GSS) examination that was postponed to Saturday from Friday.
The GSS examination was for the 100 level students from all the faculties of the university.
Saturday’s GSS examination was meant to be the climax of the institution’s second semester examinations that started on Oct. 16.
Meanwhile, the university’s management has declined to comment on the stampede.
A competent source, however, confirmed the incident. (NAN)
