Tomorrow, young leaders from across the nation gather in Abuja to co-create a bold vision for Nigeria! The National Youth Conference 2026 starts November 4th at the Army Conference Center.

It’s SAD to know Manchester United will be playing again today 😂😂

ASUU strikes are one of the major reasons private universities sprang up across Nigeria. Many of them are not necessarily offering anything spectacular academically, they simply benefited from the ROT in our public education system. With the end of ASUU strikes, we have addressed one of the major factors that pushed students and parents towards private universities. Our public universities must now reclaim their place.

As part of my commitment to promoting accountability, responsibility, and student-centred leadership across our campuses, I introduced a monthly evaluation of SUG Presidents across the country. Under this initiative, the SUG President whose activities demonstrate a strong commitment to protecting and advancing the interests of their students will receive a cash reward of ₦500,000. For the month of October, the Students’ Union Government President of the University of Maiduguri emerges as the recipient of the ₦500,000 award. Congratulations to the SUG President and the entire leadership of the University of Maiduguri Students’ Union. This initiative is designed to encourage purposeful leadership, strengthen accountability, and remind every SUG President that the essence of student leadership is to protect the interests and welfare of the students they represent. Leadership is about impact, not titles. Aluta Continua! BABTEE NANS PRESIDENT.

The Federal Polytechnic Ado management has reversed its earlier school fees increment announcement , after NANS JCC EKITI threatened to shut down the school with protests.

When your school management announces an increase in tuition fees, the first thing students should do is organise themselves, mobilise, and peacefully shut down the school to register their displeasure. Put your SUG President at the forefront and collectively demand that management reconsider the decision. Let your voices be heard. Make it clear that students will not accept decisions that affect their welfare without being consulted. However, my recent experiences engaging with institutions that attempted to increase school fees have been quite disturbing. In most of these cases, I discovered that some SUG Presidents had already reached agreements with management to support the increment, simply because their own SUG allowances or dues would be increased. In other cases, management allegedly promised certain SUG leaders personal financial benefits in exchange for their cooperation. This is unfortunate! The SUG is established to protect and represent the interests of students, not to negotiate away their welfare for personal benefits. To every SUG President out there, remember that your loyalty should be to the students who elected you. You cannot collect a mandate from students and use it to bargain against their interests. Student leadership is a responsibility… Aluta Continua!

Kudos to Nigeria armed forces … Good one there 💯💯✌️✌️

Those who know the effect of NELFUND in their academic journey, will surely appreciate it…. You can insult them, you can gaslight them, you can talk down on them, but it actually does not change how they feel….

UPDATE ON DELTA STATE UNIVERSITY (DELSU) SCHOOL FEES I have just concluded another round of discussions with the management of Delta State University (DELSU), and I can confidently inform all students that the management has confirmed that there will be no increase in school fees whatsoever, not even by 0.1%. The management clarified that the situation resulted from a portal error, which caused certain payments applicable specifically to freshers to be generalized and reflected for other students. As we speak, the payment portal has been shut down, and the necessary corrections are being made. I urge all DELSU students to remain calm and refrain from panic, as we continue to monitor the situation closely to ensure that it is fully resolved. The interest and welfare of our students remain our priority. Thank you.

UPDATE ON DELSU FEE INCREMENT I have just had a conversation with the management of Delta State University (DELSU), through the Dean of Student Affairs, and I have been informed that the university is not increasing its fees. According to the information made available to me, the issue arose from an error on the school portal. Consequently, the management has suspended the payment portal until all errors are thoroughly verified and corrected. I therefore appeal to all DELSU students to remain calm and avoid unnecessary panic as the management works to resolve the issue. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Thanks NANS PRESIDENT

GUO LOGISTICS MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE DEATHS OF FIVE STUDENTS Yesterday, along the Ijebu–Epe Road, a GUO Logistics truck reportedly left its lane and collided with a bus travelling in the opposite direction. According to the information made available to me, the bus was conveying students from Gombe to Lagos in search of Industrial Training (IT) placements. Tragically, five of these young Nigerians lost their lives instantly. They are: 1. Isiyaku Sa’idu 2. Maigana Mohammed (Abbati) 3. Anas Abubakar (Driver) 4. Zaiyanu Bajoga 5. Abubakar Ibrahim What makes this tragedy even more disturbing are reports about the conduct of GUO Logistics representatives at the scene. Rather than showing compassion to the victims and their families, the company’s management allegedly appeared more concerned about protecting its corporate image, with one of its staff reportedly attempting to erase the company’s name from the truck. As of the time of this statement, we have not received information confirming that the company has reached out to the families of the deceased or taken adequate responsibility for the injured victims receiving treatment in the hospital, who are reportedly at risk of being abandoned. This is unacceptable! Human lives must matter more than corporate reputation. As we gather further information about this tragic incident, we will communicate our findings and the actions we intend to take to the public. GUO Logistics must answer serious questions about this incident. The families of the deceased deserve justice, the injured deserve adequate medical care, and those affected deserve accountability. The lives lost cannot be brought back, but we must ensure that the circumstances surrounding their deaths are thoroughly investigated and that responsibility is established. No company should be allowed to place its reputation above the lives and dignity of innocent Nigerians. NANS PRESIDENT. BABTEE.

You want students who can now afford to go to school because of NELFUND to vote against the man who introduced the initiative, without presenting a clear plan for how your candidate intends to do better for them. Beyond insulting people who hold different opinions, what concrete education policies are you communicating to Nigerians? What exactly will your candidate do differently to improve access to education and student welfare beyond what the present government is already doing? Criticism is easy, presenting a better alternative is what matters. If your candidate has a better plan for Nigerian students, let us hear it!

NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIAN STUDENTS (NANS) 28 October 2026 PRESS RELEASE NANS SLAMS AAU MANAGEMENT OVER MCB 414 EXAMINATION CANCELLATION, DEMANDS IMMEDIATE REVERSAL The leadership of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has been inundated with several complaints over the decision of the management of Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma, to cancel the MCB 414 examination, which therefore implies that every Microbiology student in the University will automatically have an extra year. As contained in the management's publication, the reason for such cruelty is a result of the violation of the Senate's extant rule on wild jubilation by final-year students. It is rather unfortunate to see the management of Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma, make such a vile decision. This is unacceptable. As the apex student representative body, what baffles us the most is the rationale behind the decision to cancel an examination over wild jubilation, that is, if the students were involved in one to begin with. From our unbiased fact-finding, the affected final-year Microbiology students were not at any point involved in a riotous celebration. Despite that, these students have appealed to the management to reconsider its decision rather than make over 300 students resit the examination and ultimately stay back for an extra year. It is so disheartening to see that the management has been rigid and unyielding in its inhumane judgement. You cannot set over 300 students on the path to an extra year and keep their lives in abeyance over an unfounded claim that they were involved in wild jubilation after their examination. In a saner clime, this is a joke taken too far by the management. While the students were not involved in examination malpractice and have hitherto maintained that they did not participate in any riotous celebration, we reject the decision of the management to cancel the MCB 414 examination. Students who are due to graduate from the University cannot be made to stay back for another session over an unfounded and illogical claim. Therefore, we call on the management of Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma, to immediately rescind its decision to cancel the examination. There is no justification for the cancellation. What is evident here is the abuse of power by the authorities to impede the lives of over 300 students. This cruelty cannot stand, and it does not have a place in our institutions. Onward, we shall continue to speak for Nigerian students and remain firmly opposed to every form of oppression and intimidation of our students at all levels. As a body, we shall continue to advocate for, protect, and advance the interests of Nigerian students, ensuring that their rights, welfare, and future are not compromised by decisions that undermine their well-being. Signed: Dist. Comr. Akinteye Babatunde Afeez, GCNS President, National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS)

Everyone wants to have an opinion on NELFUND. Instead of gaslighting NELFUND beneficiaries, why not focus on what your preferred candidate intends to do better in the education sector? The truth is that NELFUND is a success story for Nigerian students, and its impact is widely appreciated by beneficiaries. We can always discuss areas for improvement without discrediting a programme that has given many students hope and the opportunity to remain in school.
