ASUU Strike: We Will Occupy Southwest Streets, Bury Education — NANS

The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has stated that it will bury education in the country, alleging that President Muhammadu Buhari's administration has killed it.

The recent warning was given in a statement signed by NANS Coordinator and Spokesperson, Adegboye Olatunji and Awoyinfa Opeoluwa, respectively, on Monday.

The student body also disclosed that they would be occupying the streets in the coming days.

“It behoves us to call the attention of the general public and the international community on the brazen insult meted on the Nigerian students by the irresponsible administration of Buhari.

“We want Nigerian students to be ready for grand mass action on the ASUU strike. We are clear that this government is anti-public education and this is against the yearnings of millions of students and youths.

“In coming days, we shall be occupying the streets across the South-West region to conduct a final burial rite of public education in the country as this is what the Buhari’s administration represents", part of the statement reads.
