The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) chapter of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), plans to raise funds to pay the striking lecturers of the University of Abuja Chapter of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
The students, according to the Chairman NANS (FCT), Comrade Adediwura Ismaeel Adesina, decided on this plan of action having pleaded in vain with the Federal Government to reach truce with the lecturers.
He said: “So far Nigerian students have tried their best and we have realized that the Nigerian government and ASUU have exhausted our patience. We went on different peaceful protests in FCT for them to know our plight and at the end of the day nothing was done.
ASUU continues to agitate for this money even as the Federal Government keeps saying that there is no money. We begged ASUU to return to classes but it refused while our future is in jeopardy.”
