       The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has issued
       a two weeks ultimatum to the federal government and Academic
       Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) to end the ongoing strike
       action or face the full wrath of Nigerian students. This was
       contained in a statement signed by the association’s president,
       Danielson Akpan.
       The statement reads, “The leadership of the National Association
       of Nigerian Students (NANS), after a holistic critique of the
       lingering industrial actions embarked upon by the academic staff
       of our tertiary institution has issued a TWO WEEKS ULTIMATUM to
       both the FG and ASUU to call off the lingering strike or face
       the full wrath of angry Nigerian students.
       The president equally frowned at the fact that the Acadmic Staff
       Union of Universities resisted vehemently, the idea of having
       students’ representatives during the negotiation meeting and
       rather prefer to have closed door meetings with Federal Ministry
       of Education and the leaders of the Union.
       The union leader said the strike has affected students
       academics, the accumulating cost of accommodation and could
       disenfranchise students from participating in the 2019 general
       elections.
       He threatened a mass protest across the country and the
       mobilisation of 100,000 students for a protest in Abuja.
       “They must be ready to pay back monetary compensations to
       Nigerian students from their salaries that continue to count
       even when they are not working at all, at our detriment,” he
       added
       “We are determined to carry out these actions to the fullest, if
       our campuses are not reopened at the expiration of this
       ultimatum. We therefore urge the FG and ASUU not to test our
       resolve as Nigerian students have been patient and (have been)
       taken for granted for far too long,” Mr Akpan said.
