The Association of Nigerian
Students, NANS, Thursday said the over 40 million Nigerian students would
re-enact the Occupy Nigeria protest against the removal of subsidy from
petroleum product next week.
According to Vanguard, the National
President of NANs, Comrade Tijani Shehu, stated this in Abuja, at a protest
rally where the association called for the removal of the Minister of
Education, Malam Adamu Adamu.
He said NANS is already
mobilizing Nigerias students to resist the new N145 per litre pump price of the
Premium Motor Spirit, PMS, otherwise called petrol. According to him,
“A directive has been issued to all
tertiary institutions to shut down all campuses on Tuesday and Wednesday, next
week. After that, they will all converge on Abuja for a mass protest. ”On
behalf of NANS and the whole 40.1 million Nigeria students, we condemn the new
fuel price and by Tuesday or Wednesday, the whole Nigeria student would occupy
Nigeria. So the Federal Government should look into this before NANS mobilize
the entire Nigeria students to occupy Nigeria”
