The apex students body also expressed appreciation to President Tinubu for appointing Nigerians whom they described as ‘competent individuals’.

“We the Nigerian students, therefore, commend President Bola Tinubu for his love and concern about the transformation of academic institutions through this sound appointment of incorruptible team of thoroughbred administrators to help fasten the development in our ivory towers after the recent introduction of student loan for Nigerian students”.

They stressed that the President by the appointment of about two hundred academicians with about 100 professors/PHD into the university, polytechnic and colleges of education councils along with other technocrats and politicians appointed brought a renewed hope to the development agitations of Nigerian students unlike past presidents appointments that have few academicians in the council.

While congratulating the governing council members and its chairmen on their appointment, we appeal to them to stand for justice and not encourage victimization of students by institutions management.

We are proud of Mr President foresight to have appointed some of the finest Nigerians to run the affairs of Nigeria ivory towers.

Lastly, we appeal to Academic staff union of university to cooperate with the new council members and Mr President’s genuine concern for the development of our education sector.

Comrade Pedro Obi
