The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) on Tuesday threatened to embark on a nationwide protest over the government’s failure to address the increase in petrol prices and widespread shortage of the naira.
In a statement issued by its Secretary General, Usman Kankia, the students’ body observed that the two challenges had led to considerable financial difficulties and disruptions in students’ daily lives.
The statement read: “The policy is negatively affecting students in areas of transportation, purchase of academic materials, and their day-to-day activities.
