This is just sad. NANS should not make this a protest but a tutorial. Let everyone get a reading table and chair go to eagle square seat down and read. Let's see how this presidential primary will hold.

Mumu NANS and their Mumu lecturers.

Whenever ASUU are broke they will strike, the moment FG pay 70billion Naira they will go back to class.

Look we can't continue like this!
There is nearly no Academic year that ASUU will not strike. You are talking true.

93% of ASUU members have their wards in Private Universities and abroad. This is why the careless. ASUU you are frustrating our children.

This your unrealistic demands every year most stop.

I'm still wondering why NANS haven't occupied all federal roads in Nigeria by now. Occupy all roads and bring the country to a standstill until the strike is called off. The politicians haven't taken NANS seriously yet until something like this is done!!!

Better.

A country where 100M is used to buy a presidential form where even officially the salary of the office can't amount to 100M in 4 years... Tells a tale story of everything: wrong!

I support this.

Let the Eagles square and MKO Abiola Stadium be occupied by university students to show those satanic politicians that our education matters.

You’ll see how the ineffective DSS and drunk police will embarrass themselves by showing loyalty to destructive politicians if university students should occupy those PE venues in protest.

The military may even order the deployment of fighter jets to disperseY the protesting students.
I like this decision ASUU is taking.

We all know that it will end up in tear gas, arrests and blood. Nothing more.

If NANS were serious, they would have taken action long ago.

[quote author=adenigga post=112441437]The National Association of Nigerian Students on Sunday declared that no political party will hold a convention to select any presidential candidate in Abuja.

NANS President, Sunday Asefon, made this known in a statement made available to our correspondent.

Sunday PUNCH had reported that the Peoples Democratic Party picked the Federal Capital Territory for its May Convention to select its presidential candidate amid 15 aspirants from all over the country. The ruling All Progressives Congress is also reported to have considered Abuja for its presidential primary later this month.

However, NANS, in its statement, told the political parties to either end the strike embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities since February 14, 2022, or forget about holding any presidential primary in the nation’s capital.

The apex students’ union body also expressed anger that those saddled to ensure the smooth running of the education sector including Minister of State for Education, Emeka Nwajiuba; and Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige; have picked up the outrageous N100m presidential forms of the ruling APC.

In the statement titled, ‘End ASUU Strike Or Forget Political Activities In Abuja’, the NANS president said, “We have also in the past weeks seen those saddled with great responsibility in the education sector and those saddled with responsibilities of resolving labour crises declaring interest to contest for the seat of the President come 2023.

“We are surprised by their effrontery and total disrespect to the Nigerian people for having the courage to even mute the idea of contesting talkless of picking up the 100million naira presidential form while students languish at home because of their collective failures.

“Politicians have shown no concern to the plight of the students but are only busy in their selfish and inordinate ambitions to become the next President.

“Let me say without mincing words, the two major political parties should forget any political gathering in Abuja who elsewhere except there is a solution to the lingering ASUU strike.

“We will frustrate all the activities leading to the selection of party candidates if we remain on strike. We also want to advise the government and the politicians who are busy campaigning to be President to either resolve the ASUU crises or give direct orders to the security operative to shoot us at the site during party conventions to select a presidential candidate. If we remain on strike, they should just forget it.”

ASUU, on March 14, at the expiration of its four-week warning strike which it declared on Monday, February 14, had extended the industrial action by two months.

The union led by Professor Emmanuel Osodeke said it made the decision to extend the strike so as to give the Federal Government and its agencies enough time to meet the lingering demands of the union.

The union had embarked on a nine-month strike in 2020 before it was called off in December of that year.

Keeping people's children's at home for almost 3 months now while sending your own children to school in US or UK.
Government didn't call for strike, ASUU did. Check out the history of strike in Nigeria. It's monetary driven. Nigeria is in debt. Maybe the financial situation in Nigeria should be put on the table.

Nigeria is running on loans.

The NANS President is just saying his rubbish. Why has he been quiet after the first meeting he and other officials had with Adamu Adamu?


In his capacity, he can direct the Nigerian Students to shutdown Nigeria but he kept mute till now that the said Warning Strike is only two weeks to elapse.


Our youths and student politicians de follow cause problem for this our kontry.

Whenever I see unverifiable and dumb "facts" like the bolded, I know that our education sector has indeed failed, because the poster holds that they are true and he expects his fellow olódos to follow suit and swallow this nonsense hook, line and sinker.

Declaration by lazy youths. I weep for the youths of this generation. I can recur vividly during our student activism days in the 90s. NANS, NLC and TUC have failed us. They can only bark but cannot bark.
Imagine NANS issuing still issueing threats when they are supposed to already been in action.
The action should have started since last month.
This threat is done to attract their own share of the loot... Shame on NLC, shame on NANS, shame on TUC

The government should order shoot at sight if any of these miscreants dares start any nonsense protest.

They should rather go and protest against the greedy, capricious and perfidious ASUU.

NANS elections and corrupt embezzlement are similar to the government's.

All labor unions are as corrupt as the government.
