Dialogue Or We Expose You, NANS Threatens ASUU


The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has threatened to expose the real issues behind the industrial action embarked upon by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU). The NANS president, Comrade Yinka Gbadebo told journalists in Abuja that the union’s demands are egocentric and has so far been largely responsible for the corruption and rot in the university system.
The student association who questioned the demands of the union warned ASUU to refrain from politicising the strike, but should embrace useful solutions like the call for a National Education Stakeholders Dialogue.
This threat is coming at the heels of the strike embarked upon by members of  ASUU entering its 100th day. Thousands of students, including those undertaking postgraduate programmes have been idling away at home since July 2. The failure of the federal government to fulfil resolutions reached with ASUU in 2009 and non-payment of accumulated earned allowances owed the university lecturers are yet to be addressed.

The statement issued on behalf of the minister by her Special Assistant, Media, Joe Obi, reads in part, “The presentation of false information or forged documentation to regulatory authorities in the processing of official approvals or permits is clearly a serious violation of the Civil Aviation Act, the Nigerian Civil Aviation Regulations and other extant criminal laws in the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
