Gunshots In Abuja At Nigerian Students, NANS Convention As Seyi Tinubu Allegedly Plots To Impose 48-Year-Old Candidate As President

Heavy gunshots on Wednesday rocked the vicinity of the old parade ground in Abuja, venue of the national convention of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), according to videos obtained by SaharaReporters.


NANS, the umbrella body of students of tertiary institutions in Nigeria, is currently holding a convention to elect a new set of national leaders.

A source, who spoke to SaharaReporters, said some students sustained wounds from the gunshots and machetes after thugs loyal to a candidate said to be the preferred choice of President Bola Tinubu’s son, Seyi, began attacking opposition delegates.

The thugs were said to have been led by one Sunday Asefon, recently appointed as the Senior Special Assistant to President Bola Tinubu on Students Engagements.

SaharaReporters had earlier reported how students and stakeholders kicked against the candidature of one Lucky Emonefe, a 48-year-old citizen, as president of the association.

Emonefe, who has been parading himself as Seyi’s preferred choice left the College of Education, Warri, Delta State 20 years ago (2003), SaharaReporters learnt.

It was learnt that some politicians had raised millions of Naira to influence the ongoing election and support his candidature.

It’s extremely shameful to see old men who should rather be more concerned about the lives and welfare of their wives and kids fighting for positions in the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS),” a student had told SaharaReporters.

“Imagine someone who left the College of Education since 2003, about 20 years ago is now planning to become President of the association due to selfishness of some people working with politicians.”

Another student added, “This same old man, his wife is a serving councillor under PDP in Delta, she is serving her second tenure, so you can guess his age. He is supported by the Delta State Government machinery over this.

“But in Abuja, he is claiming to be an APC member after racketeers led by Asefon collected millions of Naira from him and sold him to Seyi Tinubu as APC candidate for NANS President. Now they came here and started shooting anyhow and attacking delegates who are not in Lucky’s support.”

SaharaReporters gathered that about seven other aspirants are contesting to be President of the students’ association.

Tinubu's dynasty is a dynasty of fraud, corruption, thuggery, bribery, identity theft and demonic.
What do you expect from a son of " grab and run with it"?

lol. just remembered that famous quote; power is not served alarcarte, pursue it, capture it, and run away with it.
the abnormalities in Nigeria is becoming more nauseating as each day unfolds.
how can someone who is no more a student, still be contesting for the leadership of students union ?
if NANS allow this absurdity, then their voices have been captured and silenced for good, because this is nothing short of state capture of strategic opposing voices like that of NANS on issues that could be affecting Nigeria students , and Nigerians in the future.
why is APC government so desperate of silencing opposition and opposing views ?
the Nigeria media is now afraid of reporting news offensive to the government, because of the huge penalty that could be imposed on them by the government agencies.
total state capture on the move, but we go dey alright, las- las.

Since the founding of NANS, the election has never been peaceful, So trying to plant a person's that was never seen in gathering is just an act of defaming.
