Following the prolonged industrial action embarked upon by the university lecturers under the aegis of the Academic Staff Union of Nigerian Universities ASUU, , the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), Kaduna, has called on students of respective schools to assemble on Wednesday to shut down the busy Kaduna-Abuja road.
Speaking in a statement on Wednesday, the students’ task force Chairman, Comrade Dominic Philip said the mass action would commence from Kaduna expressway and end at Gonin Gora by Federal Cooperative College, Kaduna.
To make the mass action a successful one, he , he invited all National Excos, Zonal Excos in Kaduna, JCC Executives, SUG’s/ SRC Executives, parents, good-spirited countrymen and women to join the massive protest at the busy road.
It will be recalled that the Kaduna State Government, had on Tuesday night, issued a stern warning to the students, saying that such protest is dangerous being that the state is a fragile state.
Speaking on the development, the State Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan,, said that the planned action by any group or individual would not be accepted by the state.
