The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has issued a stark warning to the Federal Government, urging immediate action to address the worsening economic hardship and hunger affecting millions of Nigerians.
The student body cautioned that failure to act could result in more tragic stampedes as citizens scramble for food and basic necessities.
In a statement signed by the Clerk of the Senate, NANS National, Abdul-Yekinni Odunayo, the association described recent stampedes in Ibadan, Abuja, and Anambra—events that claimed numerous lives, including those of children—as a “national disgrace.”
