#ASUUStrike President Of National Association Of Nigerian Students (NANS) Impeached

As
a result of his poor handling of the ongoing ASUU strike, the Nigerian
Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has impeached its current
president Yinka Gbadebo and has replaced him with Jubril Ahmad, the
vice-president.
In a statement obtained by Sahara Reporters,
NANS Senate President Emaluyi Sunday Michael said Gbadebo was impeached
at a meeting of stakeholders on September 7 under Section 49(1) of the
constitution. That provision states: “The president can be impeached on
the grounds of incompetence or as therefore by his attitude or action
which can be classified/regarded as misconduct”.

It accused
Gbadebo of inability to serve the primary purpose of NANS to protect the
general interest of all Nigerian students both at home and in Diaspora,
“before the institutions, government, parastatals, stakeholders and even
other countries policies.”
The statement cited the current
impasse between the federal government and university teachers which has
seen Nigerian students sitting at home for 65 days, saying Gbadebo was
found wanting in the challenge of bringing both parties together.
“Rather
he is aligning with a particular party and indulging in “Ghana-must-Go
protest,” the statement said, adding that the “dilapidated and maggoty
condition of Nigerian universities is of no concern to Ayefele.”
