Denial Of Eksu Team To Represent Nigeria At The Enactus World Competition by command01(f): 12:35pm On Oct 07, 2014 |
OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT GOODLUCK EBELE JONATHAN: REPRESENTATION OF NIGERIA AT THE ENACTUS WORLD COMPETITION IN CHINA YOUR EXCELLENCY, We are pleased to inform you that Students of Ekiti State University are slated to represent Nigeria this October in China having won the ENACTUS Promoted Innovation Competition earlier in the year. It should be noted that our institution along with over 40 others in Nigeria have worked tirelessly to contribute positively to the development of our dear nation Nigeria through the ENACTUS (Entrepreneurial Action Us) Platform by embarking on micro economic impacting projects which has improved the quality of life and standard of living of people in our various communities by stimulating economic demand for locally produced products. ENACTUS (Entrepreneurial Action Us) is an international non-profit organization that works with leaders in business and educational Institutions to mobilize university and polytechnic students to make economic difference in their communities while developing the skills to become socially responsible business leaders. Annually, ENACTUS participating institutions come together to share their success stories and the institution with the best innovation that meets all judging criteria represents Nigeria at the International competition which is hosted at different countries. At these international competitions, Nigeria has been duly represented over the years as the leading African country and most consistent top five institution in the Final round of the competition. As a matter of fact, Nigeria, represented by Kaduna Polytechnic won the Third position amongst 32 countries at the international competition which was held in Mexico October, 2013. ENACTUS Ekiti State University is to represent our dear nation Nigeria this ENACTUS year on October 22nd-24th, 2014 at Beijieng, China. However, we have been denied VISA by the Chinese Embassy to participate at the competition due to the incidence of the Ebola Virus in Nigeria this year. We consider this an act of international discrimination which needs your urgent attention and intervention. The concerted effort of both the Nigerian Government and her citizens in overcoming the scourge of the dreaded Ebola virus should be praised by the international community rather than it being an excuse for any country that has a strong bilateral relationship and economic ties to the Federal Government of Nigeria to prevent or deny citizens of this great nation the opportunity to promote our innovation and competitiveness in the global stage. We believe that this denial is not only experienced by ENACTUS Ekiti State University but also so many Nigerian citizens travelling to other countries' not only China at this time. Sir, based on our experience we write to solicit for your strong voice and action of Support to tell the world in a loud and clear voice that Nigeria is Ebola Free through the ENACTUS EKSU Move tagged “Nigeria is Ebola Free, Don't Stigmatise Us” to give every Nigerian access to his / her right and freedom of association without intimidation and stigmatization at the International level. Join the train # NGIsEbolaFree Thank You 1 Like 1 Share |
