In a statement, NANS Senate President Emaluyi Sunday Michael said
Gbadebo was impeached and replaced with Vice-President, Jubril Ahmed.
They
accused Gbadebo of inability to serve the primary purpose of NANS to
protect the general interest of all Nigerian students both at home and
in Diaspora, “before the institutions, government, parastatals,
stakeholders and even other countries policies.”
The statement
cited the current impasse between the federal government and university
teachers which has seen Nigerian students sitting at home for 65 days,
saying Gbadebo was found wanting in the challenge of bringing both
parties together.
“Rather he is aligning with a particular party
and indulging in “Ghana-must-Go protest,” the statement said, adding
that the “dilapidated and maggoty condition of Nigerian universities is
of no concern to Ayefele.”
PRESS RELEASE ON THE PASSAGE OF VOTE OF
NO CONFIDENCE ON COMRADE YINKA GBADEBO a.k.a AYEFELE BY THE NATIONAL
ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIAN STUDENTS SENATE ARM
Held on 7th of September, 2013 at Wellington Conference Hall, D.S.C Express Road,Effurun Delta State; at 10:00am prompt.
Distinguished
senators, stakeholders, senior cadres, National comrades, invited NGOs,
congress-men, contemporaries, Nigeria students present, gentlemen and
ladies of the press, Greatest Nigeria Students.
The primary reason
for the formation of National Association of Nigeria Students (NANS)
some decades ago was for the purpose of Nigeria students’ welfarism,
protecting the general interest of all Nigerian students both at home
and in Diaspora, before the institutions, government, parastatals,
stakeholders and even other countries policies. This has however been
cut – off, abandoned, rejected and marginalized by the
“Australopithecus” Gbadebo led administration.
The Nigerian
educational system especially that of the tertiary institution has
witnessed topsy – turvy because of its hydra headed and centrally
maggoty state, and the Comrade Yinka Gbadebo “barren” cabinet has done
less than little in its revival.
It is pitiable at this juncture
to state that the Ayefele regime has done more harm than good to the
Nigerian Students as he does not know his duty as the numero uno
Nigerian student, controlling over seventy (70) million Nigerian
students at home and in diaspora. Sadly, Nigeria students have been
deprive of their fundamental right to higher education for sixty- five
(65) days by intentionally remanding them in their various homes over
the quagmire between ASSU and the federal government, yet the NANS
president has been found wanting in his inability to bring both parties
on the same page.
Rather he is aligning with a particular party
and indulging in “Ghana-must-Go protest”. It is therefore obvious that
the dilapidated and maggoty condition of Nigerian universities is of no
concern to Ayefele.
Moreso, we have lost Nigerian students in
recent insurgent attacks in the northern part of the country and the
NANS president had paid deaf ears to the calamity Nigerian students are
undergoing during this trial period. However, consequent to the
constitution of the National Association of Nigeria Students’ national
body, the provision of section 49 pointedly provides for the grounds on
which the NANS president can be removed from office or impeached. The
aforementioned section 49(1) states that:
“The president can be
impeached on the grounds of incompetence or as therefore by his attitude
or action which can be classified/regarded as misconduct”.
It is
in this regard that I, comrade Emaluyi Sunday Michael, the Senate
President of National Association of Nigerian Students; in the interest
of Nigerian students and for the purpose of their adequate welfarism
hereby subject to the “consensus addendum” reached in the Senate
congress meeting earlier this week by Senate leaders: Babale P. Bala,
Deputy Senate – President; Sen. Joseph J. Olatunde, Clerk; and other
distinguished Senators namely Sen. Morphy Moch, Sen. Comrade Ojamomi
Fashola A, Sen. Pam Ayuba, Sen. Daniel Sunday, sen. Emeka Jonathan, Sen.
Abdulfatah Sule, Sen. Kehinde Ilori, Sen. Jimoh Raheem. Others include
Sen. Mathew Earnet, Sen. Elumelu Tony, Sen. Patrick Nkechi, Sen. Donald
Michael, Sen. Taye Sarumi, Sen. Bolaji Akande, Sen. Arome Abu and 94
other senators present, hitherto passed a “Vote of no confidence” on the
NANS president Comrade Yinka Gbadebo a.k.a Ayefele on the grounds of
incompetence, gross misconduct, sabotage, abuse of office, selfish
alliance and also using NANS presidential office as a window of
ventilation for the purpose of personal aggrandizement. This decision
takes effect from this day 7th of September, 2013
The doctrine of
necessity therefore applies as the Vice – President Comrade Jubril Ahmed
takes charge of the Presidential Office.
Conclusively, the new Vice – President shall be sworn in on the 11th of September, 2013, venue to be communicated on air.
We
also use this medium to call on the FG and ASUU to reach a compromise
at the fastest possible means as students who have unnecessarily stayed
at home are threatening to embark on actions that may cause nationwide
unrest, corrosive aluta awakening and edu – sociological jihad.
