The National Association of Nigerian Students has faulted the Federal Government over the National Universities Commission's instability in giving directives for resumption to federal universities.

“Meanwhile, we have the Senate Committee on Tertiary Education tasked with the responsibility of performing oversight functions on the subject matter. We are also aware that the essence of the visitation panel which constitutes part of the FG/ASUU 2009 agreement is to monitor vice-chancellors and how they spend. This points to the fact that ASUU is very clear that VCs must be contributory and accountable.

“We believe that this call is most ridiculous and has also exposed him as a misfit for the office he presently occupies. Education, as much as we know is on the concurrent list which automatically gives responsibility to both the state and FG to fund. Also, Section 18 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 mandates the government to make education accessible and affordable for the citizens. Unfortunately, a Senator is asking the Federal Government to stop funding education.
