NANS moves against Ajimobis re-election The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), has vowed to mobilise its members against the re-election of Senator Abiola Ajimobi as governor of Oyo State next month. The group made this known at a press conference addressed by its Assistant General Secretary, Zone D, Oloja Olanrewaju on Wednesday in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital. Olanrewaju, accompanied by over 150 other student leaders from Oyo, Osun, Ondo, Ekiti, Lagos and Ogun State, said it was unfortunate that the government compelled graduating students to pay N750 with the promise to give them bursary but said nothing had been heard about the promise since two years ago. He described the collection of fees with a promise of getting bursary as a way to extort and further pauperise indigent Nigerian students. “As a result of the insensitivity of Governor Isiaq Ajimobi-led administration to the plight of students, the leadership of NANS, Zone D, thus pass a vote of no confidence on Governor Isiaq Ajimobi and will thus mobilise students against his re-election come 2015, he added. The group also condemned the government’s slow pace in taking steps concerning the House of Horror uncovered in Ibadan, saying since the discovery, nothing had been heard about it again. Olanrewaju while urging members of the union across the South-West region to collect their PVCs and vote for credible candidates who will further their educational advancement and protect their mandate as future leaders
