Obi, Tinubu Or Atiku? – NANS Speaks On Endorsing Presidential Candidate

Students at the country’s tertiary institutions have stated that they have yet to endorse a presidential candidate for the upcoming general elections.

The students’ umbrella organization, the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), stated that they are still profiling the dossiers of each of the presidential candidates and their parties in order to select the best among them to be voted for during the February 25 presidential election.

Mr Tope Giwa, the national public relations officer of NANS and a student at the University of Lagos (UNILAG), revealed this on Monday.

He stated that NANS had never endorsed any presidential candidate, but had instead formed a special committee to evaluate the credentials of all candidates from all parties, without leaving anyone out of the process.

“The committee has gone far with the task and will submit its report and recommendation to the NANS president in a couple of days.

“We plan to unveil to the public whoever is our choice among the contenders about a week before the election. And we shall massively mobilise every Nigerian student, to vote for that candidate.

This year’s election will not be like the others. We will ensure that we all vote and our votes count.

“We will mobilise ourselves for the candidate with the genuine interest of students, education, youths and health at heart as well as who is also interested in the general wellbeing of Nigerians and the economy,” he explained.

Giwa, who said that “it is not likely that the schools are shut because of the elections,” noted that NANS would ensure students who registered with INEC for their Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs) in school go to their polling units to cast their votes, while those who registered at home would travel home to cast their votes and to all stand by their votes.
