Abstract
Description
Previous studies attest to violent protest in the public universities in Nigeria, but articles on student unrest in the private sector have not been explored in academic literature. Upon this background, this article used data from descriptive source (library, newspapers and internet
materials) to address this social problem. Therefore, it examined a number of existing factors that prompted the origin of violent protests among students and the implications it portends to educational development in the country. The study equally discussed doctrines
guiding the operation of private Faith-Based universities, which students may not want to align with, but are very germane to the actualization of their visions as well as success of students, who passed through them. Finally, the study proposed the way forward for the management and students of these institutions.
