The leadership of National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) Joint Campus Committee (JCC) Ogun axis and National Association of Ogun State Students (NAOS), have disassociated themselves from last week’s alleged petition and protest, purportedly held by “sponsored students” against Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun at the All-Progressives Congress (APC) Secretariat, Abuja.
The students in a statement jointly signed by Comrade Damilola Kehinde Chairman, NANS JCC Ogun and Comrade Ogunrombi Oluwagbemileke President, National Association of Ogun State Students, condemnd the activities of some of political leaders in the state aimed at unnecessarily heating up the political atmosphere.
They said it was highly disheartening that people who are supposed to be in the position of elder statemen in the state would be those responsible for sponsoring campaign of calumny against the sitting Governor.
The statement reads: “We wish to use this medium to condemn the activities of some of our political leaders in the state aimed at unnecessarily heating up the political atmosphere in our dear state by sponsoring unwarranted and frivolous petition and against His Excellency Governor Dapo Abiodun, the Executive Governor of Ogun State through their faceless errand boys christen Coalition of Ogun State.
“It is highly disheartening that people who are supposed to be in the position of elder statemen in the state will be those responsible for sponsoring campaign of calumny against the sitting State Governor.
“This unwarranted sponsor of media engagement aimed at tagging His Excellency, Governor Dapo Abiodun is high level show of irresponsibility on the part of the leaders who are sponsoring it.
“Though, there were several attempts by this leader through their respentatives and surrogate to recruit the leadership of all youth and students’ organisations in the state to join them in this ungodly venture but when this fails, they now resolve to mobilising Almajiris to stàge a protest against Governor Dapo Abiodun at the National Secretariat of the All-Progressives Congress in Abuja all in the bid to achieve their selfish end.’’
