The National Association of Nigerian Students NANS has asked President MUHAMMADU BUHARI to immediately sack the Minister of Education, ADAMU ADAMU and the Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr CHRIS NGIGE for failing to resolve the impasse between the Academic Staff Union of Universities and Federal Government to allow for industrial peace in public universities.
National President of NANS, SUNDAY ASEFON, who led scores of students to protest against the strike action by ASUU on Monday in Abuja.
The protesters temporarily blocked the entrance gate to Phase I, Federal Secretariat Complex, housing the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment among others until the intervention of a Police Officer, ABDULLAHI A.H, who tried to pacify the students with the promise to arrange a meeting for them with the Minister.
ASEFON, vowed that student from all over the country would relocate to Abuja to occupy the Federal Ministry of Education and Labour to prevent the two ministers from gaining access to their offices as long the public universities are shut.
He said a similar directive has been given to students to ensure that all offices of the Academic Staff Union of Universities are also locked by the students, saying the lecturers also have their own share of the blame.
