The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) wishes to inform the general public that it now has a new Senate President. His name is Comrade Nyanabo Maxwell from the University of Port-Harcourt, Rivers State. He replaced late Donald Onaukwogwu who died in a ghastly motor accident while on his way to the University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom State sometime in June.
The Senate sitting where Nyanabo emerged as Senate President took place on the 27th September, 2013 at the University of Port-Harcourt, Rivers State. The new Senate President is the current Students’ Union President (SUG) of the University of Port-Harcourt, Rivers State (UNIPORT).
In a related development, the Deputy Senate President of NANS, comrade John Shima has been impeached by his colleagues for gross misconduct, financial misdemeanor and an act capable of tarnishing the image and integrity of the revered association. Shima, a student of Benue State University, Markurdi was also banned for life from participating in all NANS activities.
Amongst the allegations leveled against John Shima are but not Limited to the underneath:
-That John Shima called for a Senate sitting in Port-Harcourt, and before the commencement of the sitting, absconded having discovered that his evil plans and secrets have been revealed; thereby abandoning in the process, Senators that came from virtually all tertiary institutions across the country for the sitting,
-That John Shima colluded with some character-riddled former NANS leaders to collect from the Rivers State Government, of the sum of N24million to stage anti-President Goodluck Jonathan mass protest in Port-Harcourt,
-That John Shima, having discovered that his secrets have been revealed to the no-nonsense NANS National President, Comrade Yinka Gbadebo, sent some men of the under world to eliminate him (the President) after paying them the sum of N1.5million for the hatchet job,
-That John Shima, has for months before now, been parading himself as the Acting Senate President of NANS despite yet to be inaugurated to act in that capacity,
Meanwhile, after the impeachment and decimation of John Shima from office, NANS Senators unanimously elected Comrade Henry Mark from Benue State University as their new Deputy Senate President.
The sitting was observed by the NANS President, Yinka Gbadebo and virtually all the members of his executive council.
The Senators at the end of their sitting called on the Federal Government and the members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), to for the sake of tomorrow’s leaders whose destinies are being delayed and future being ruined by the on-going industrial action embarked upon by ASUU, meet and resolve their dispute in order for their ivory towers to be reopened for academic activities.
