The National Association of University Students,
NAUS, has vowed to embark on a protest should the Joint force of NASU,
SSANU, NAAT and the Federal Government fail to reach a compromise and
call off the ongoing strike.
Speaking on Sunday in Abuja, NAUS National
Secretary General, Comrade Ogochukwu Isioma, said after due
consultations with concerned stakeholders and union leaders, the
Association agreed to embark on a protest.
He said: “When we commence the protest, we
will not stop until the Joint Action Committee (JAC) of NASU, SSANU,
NAAT and the Federal Government resolve the issue and call off the
strike.
“We have agreed that all NAUS leaders,
Students’ Union leaders in the various institutions, concerned
stakeholders, as well as well meaning comrades would join forces to
begin the protest, if by the end of the three weeks ultimatum given
them, the Federal Government fails to reach a compromise with the
leadership of NASU, SSANU and NAAT.”
According to him, the Union leaders would kick-start the protest at the Eagle Square, Abuja.
He said further: “We are resolute in our quest
to secure and protect our future from being ruined. There is no going
back in our struggle to emancipate Nigerian University students from the
shackles of oppressions.”
He described the Federal Government’s attitude towards the education sector as sardonic and satanic.
“NAUS has reaffirmed its commitment in
collaborating with other Civil Society Organisations to ensure that
public education at the university level occupies utmost priority in
governments’ policies, budgeting and implementation,” Isioma said.
