STRIKE: Students In Lagos Set To Protest Over ASSU Strike by koksy4all: 12:05am On Jan 26, 2019 |
Students of tertiary institutions in Lagos have formed a group under the aegis of Concerned Nigerian Students are planning to protest on Friday, January 25 2019 to express their disappointment over ASUU strike. According to a statement sent to Pulse on Wednesday, January 23, 2019 by the students, they asked the Federal Government to fulfil the agreement it willfully entered with the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) in order for them to get back to school. The statement reads : ‘’The March tagged #BlackFridayWalk which was earlier scheduled to start by 10am after a Press Conference at the University of Lagos was suspended till further notice for security reasons. "The leadership of the Coalition submitted a letter to the Police informing them of the peaceful protest and the only accepted reason given by the Police to suspend the March is the security situation in Lagos, citing the violence that claimed lives at the APC rally on Tuesday and the reprisal attacks they envisage. "We were very clear that it is never in the interest of the Nigerian State and its instrumentality; in this case, the Police to harbor dissidence, freedom of association and expression. Nevertheless, it is in the understanding of the tension in the political space the thieving ruling class have created, the leadership suspended the protest to prevent any breach of public peace by their agents who are only interested in leaving sorrow, tears and blood. "We called on all Nigerian students to be on the alert for a new date and schedule which is as follows: Date: Friday, 25th of January 2019. Venue: MRS Filling Station Beside UNILAG’’. source:: https://newscentral24..com/2019/01/strike-students-in-lagos-set-to-protest.html
