NANS Impeaches President, As ASUU/FG Faceoff Continues

The National Association of Nigerian
Students (NANS) has removed Yinka
Gbadebo as its leader, replacing him
with its Vice-President, Jubril Ahmed.
In a statement, NANS Senate President
Emaluyi Sunday Michael said Gbadebo
was impeached at a meeting of
stakeholders on September 7 under
Section 49(1) of the constitution. That
provision states: “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 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.
Aluta Continua, Victoria Acerta.
Thank you all, God bless you, God bless
Nigerian students, God bless
Federal republic of Nigeria
