The NANS Zone D head, Bamigboye Peter, in his address listed various demands of the students body but was also quick to note that the Governor is already addressing many of the issues bothering the student community.

The Governor who described the students as leaders of today and not tomorrow said “I understand your situation more than you think.

“I have situation reports across our campuses. So all your presentations are not new to me.

“Our government has big plans for the youth and students’ sector. You are all aware of the bad state of the economy and infrastructure when we took over in 2022.

“We met huge debt, high infra deficit, bastardized public service and crisis ridden school leadership. We decided to first set right the ship of the state from the top, following which we have launched a sub-sectoral action plan covering many critical areas.

“We are now addressing sectors like youth, women and sports among others. Your visit is therefore timely. Your presentations will also go a long way to assist the government to meet your demands on various levels”, the Governor told the student leaders.

He urged them to continue to maintain the current peace in their various campuses, thanking them for contributing to policy making.

“So go back to your campuses and report to your Congress that their messages have been delivered. I assure them through you that we will duly study the submissions. Be assured that our responses will be positive.
