LAGOS—National Association of Nigerian Students, NANS, plans to hold a
nation-wide protest as a last resort to force the Federal Government
and the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, to end the
protracted strike of university lecturers.
NANS' President, Yinka Gbadebo, responding to allegations that the
students' body was not bothered by the 60-day-old strike, said the
union had been employing other matured approaches to appeal to both
the government and ASUU.
According to him, "NANS is not relaxed but we have decided to take
approaches that don't require us to make noise. We have been meeting
with executive members of ASUU, the Nigerian Universities Commission,
Minister of Education and the FG.
"We have also written to meet with the universities NEEDS
Implementation Committee chairman and Governor of Benue State, Mr.
Gabriel Suswan. If we don't receive any response by the end of the
week, we would issue an ultimatum and take it up from there.
"I have been consulting with all SUG leaders in the affected schools
so that we would speak with one voice. Going to the streets would be
our last option but we would do so to protest how long this strike has
lingered.

saw a comment on how Mr. frank helped a guy last year to upgrade his jamb score, I was so astonished, so I also contacted
Mr. frank this year because my jamb score was too poor, I had 186, so Mr. frank is a simple man. He upgraded my jamb score
from that 186 to 280. He has done a wonderful work for me. God bless Mr. frank for me. You can also contact Mr. frank on;
