Factional leader of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), Comrade Atiku Abubakar Isah, has agreed to work with the NANS president, Comrade Oladoja, in repositioning the association and fighting for the welfare of its membeers.
Speaking at a joint news conference in Abuja, Isah who endorsed Comrade Olusola Oladoja as the authentic president of NANS, expressed willingness to join forces with him to chart a new path for the progress of the association.
He said there was no need to divide NANS into protracted leadership crisis while the interest and welfare of students that should protected suffer.
“Comrade Olusola Oladoja and I met and we have agreed that NANS should become one. He is the authentic NANS President. No more division in NANS, we are now one,” he stated.
Olusola Ladoja on his part noted that after a crucial meeting with Abubakar Isah “who has been parading himself as factional NANS President has agreed to collapse his structure into my own for us to work together in taking the Association to the next level”.
He said it was a remarkable day, noting that during his campaign one of things he promised to do was unification of NANS that was hitherto factionalized.
Oladoja said he had earlier noted that the crisis was an internal issue and that it was a good thing that everybody now has agreed to work together in the interest of Nigerian students.
