The National Association of Nigerian Students, South-West zone has come out to say that Muhammadu Buhari has no concern for education in the country.

The group recently had its say via a statement, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to the association, Buhari’s lack of care of attention for the educational sector is so deep that he doesn’t even know that research institutes in Nigeria are currently on strike.

The group added that education has completely collapsed in Nigeria, and the President is not ready to do anything about it.

It read, “This conference is geared towards getting the Federal government to act positively on the demands of research institutes.”

“As a responsive leadership, we are prepared to tackle any menace that could want to stand on our way to get affordable and quality education in this country. We can no longer allow this government to determine our future for us.”

“Federal government seems not to be on the know that research institutes in nigeria are on strike. Educational system in Nigeria has collapsed and as such Federal government should as a matter of urgency declare of state of emergency on education.”

“No country can develop without research work and one of the major aim of education is training.
Federal Government should implement the agreement signed with RESEARCH Institutes in the country.”

“We were reliably informed of the exclusion of all colleges under research institute and other special colleges from TETFUND, which they ought to be the prioritised beneficiaries of this fund as they are specialised institution which if properly funded will explore to their maximum potential hence, a catalyst to solve many unresolved issues facing us as a nation which will undoubtedly propel the development of our dear country.”

“A country can not survive without research work. Research is the bedrock of any nation to move from an underdeveloped to a developed nation. Research is the panacea of development for any nation which the current situation is a bane to our development. Every technology we see today is as a result of research.”
