BONG COUNTY — Academic activities at Cuttington University’s Suakoko Campus in Bong County have been disrupted following a protest by concerned and conscious-minded students over reported poor campus conditions and inadequate facilities. The protest started on early Friday, November 13, 2026.
The protesting students, who early paraded from the university’s main entrance and assembled at the administration building to present their petition, later moved from classroom to classroom, interrupting lectures and other academic activities to draw the university administration’s attention to their concerns.
Among the major issues raised by the students are inadequate security for students residing in campus dormitories, poor lighting across the campus, unsanitary conditions, and a shortage of chairs in classrooms, among other challenges.
The protest reflects growing concerns among students over what they describe as inadequate campus facilities and living conditions that negatively affect their academic experience.
As of publication, the administration has yet to respond to the protesting students. However, some administrators on campus, including the Vice President for Institutional Advancement Orea Wright have reportedly attempted to compromise leaders behind the protest by calling them to a closed-door meeting.
For the student leaders, they described Wright’s move as corrupt, refusing to sit in with he and his team, while the president had reportedly failed to address their concerns despite repeated communications.
They have threatened to continue their protest actions if the university’s president Dr. Rommel Hilton refuses to accept their petition. Police have arrived at the scene and are making efforts to calm protesters to discontinue their protestation and Sid in a dialogue with the administration.
