“When I was in Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, I was asked to bring my parents following a riot I helped to organise in protest against increase in school fees. When my mother arrived, she only asked me if I stole or killed somebody, to which I said no. I told her I organised protest against increase in school fees, and she said, ‘Carry on, you have my support,’” Melaye had said about his mother.
