Two factions of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) have emerged following the outcome of the association elections which came to an end on Dec.1. 2023.
The factional presidents are Comrade
Lucky Emonefe and Comrade Rioborue Jude Deniran who both claimed to be genuine leaders in separate press conferences at the weekend.
Comrade Rioborue Jude Deniran on the other hand urged the Department of State Services to give a report of the 2023 elective convention as the world was eager to know.
“It’s indeed an enormous privilege and honor to be trusted with the leadership of Nigerian students. I am deeply conscious of that privilege and honor at this time.
It is indeed a remarkable and historic victory for Nigerian students, and I have no doubt about what this means to the students’ community.
The mandate you have freely given to us is a mandate for reform and investment in the future of NANS, and it is also very clearly an instruction for good governance. I assure you of good leadership delivery,” he said.
Comrade Emonefe had however said that the elections was free and fair and as such led to him winning as the national president.
