ASUU Strike: NANS passes vote of no confidence on Jonathan
The National President, National Association of Nigerian Students, (NANS) said Monday Nigerian students have lost confidence in the administration of President Jonathan in revamping the educational sector to international standard.
Prince Miaphen said in a statement distributed to journalists that the Jonathan administration had failed to address the lingering ASUU crisis and by so doing thwarting past efforts to rev up the standard of education in the country.
"It worrisome and infuriating that the administration of Goodluck Jonathan has failed to implement the 2009 agreement reached with ASUU. This as a result has caused a great setback in the pursuit of education by Nigerian students."
The NAN president said the Jonathan administration was toeing the path of his predecessors who he said paid lip services to education and other sensitive sectors of the Nigerian economy.
Mr. Miaphen said Mr. Jonathan’s attitude had resulted in the current rot in the academic sector.
"NANS therefore pass a vote of no confidence on the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan for the poor pursuit of qualitative education among students in Nigeria,"
The student leader regretted that President Jonathan and the outgone minister of education, both of whom were teachers, failed to profer lasting solutions to the problems bedevilling the educational system.
The statement said the situation in the education sub-sector has resulted in Nigerian higher institutions producing unemployable graduates.
"As a result of persistence strike each academic calendar, our universities and other high institutions churns out half-baked graduates every year due to incessant strike action, we cannot suffer in silence while individuals responsible for our travails send their own children to choice universities school abroad," he said.
