NANS in a statement by its Southwest Coordinator, Adegboye
Olatunji, said the Federal Government should prepare for another round of mother
of all battles with the closure of all the International Airports nationwide.
The Union said it has put all its members on red alert,
threatening that it would resist any attempt by the security operatives to
prevent the protest from taken place as scheduled.
“We are on the last Cs of ALUTA which is confrontation. This
is the time to call on all Nigerian students across all zones to come out in
mass to take over all the International Airports in the Country. Nigerian
students are tired of the long-overdue strike action.
“The leadership of the National Association of Nigerian
Students in conjunction with the National Association of University Students,
hereby declare a massive protest to shutdown all the International Airports in
Nigeria.
We are ready to take the bull by the horn as Nigerian
students will not keep silent and watch our future be ruined by the prolonged
ASUU/ASUP strike.
“Aviation unions gave a 2-day warning strike on the shutdown
of flight operations. A meeting was scheduled by the Federal government and
strike action was called off in less than 24 hours because the first-class
citizens would be affected.
“But it is so obvious that none of them is affected by the
ASUU/ASUP strike. They have their children all over the world enjoying a smooth
educational system”, he said.
