Last Tuesday, we recalled that the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) issued a one-week ultimatum to the Federal Government to resolve their disagreement with ASUU or face a national mass protest by students from all over the nation.

The students promised that they would block some major roads in the nation’s capital if the government and ASUU do not resolve the issues throughout the weekend.
