In his words, “We won’t continue to serve a government that does not understand the value of education. If you choose not to yield to the demands of ASUU and COEASU, we will  continue our protest.

“Mr. President, NANS is giving you this for free that, come 2019, we are going to show you the  road through our votes  to Daura  if after today’s nationwide  protest, you still refuse to respect the voice of over 50 million Nigerian students.
