The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has called for the sack of Mele Kyari, the Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Limited (NNPCL).
NANs, noted that their demand was based on Kyari’s incompetence and ineptitude in handling the issues regarding Dangote Refinery and also the conflict of interest in the fuel racketeering scheme.
Speaking on Wednesday at its 74th Senate sitting in Kano, NANS also demanded an immediate reduction in the price of petrol, threatening it would go on strike if the demands were not met by the Federal Government.
Speaking further, they warned tertiary institutions against arbitrary increases in tuition fees on the back of the rollout of the student loan by the Federal Government.
Speaking via a statement signed by its Senate President, Okunomo Adewumi, NANS said its 74th Senate sitting was convened to engage “in a thorough deliberation on the precarious state of our nation.
The student body said, “We express our profound dismay and disillusionment with the current economic trajectory, which has precipitated unprecedented hardship and suffering for Nigerian citizens.
“We call on the government to immediately reduce the cost of petrol. Failure to comply will leave us no option but to mobilise and take to the streets in protest.
“We demand the immediate sack of the NNPC GCEO, Mr. Mele Kyari, for his incompetence and ineptitude in handling the Dangote refinery and obvious conflict of interest in their fuel racketeering scheme.
“We also demand that the CBN Governor takes immediate action to stabilise the naira-dollar exchange rate, bringing it down to a maximum of N600 per dollar within 30 days. Failure to comply will result in calls for his removal from office.”
