NAPS APPLAUD FG ON REOPENING OF SCHOOLS, DEMAND FOR TUITION FEE WAIVER FOR AN ACADEMIC SESSION AS A FORM OF PALLIATIVE TO CUSHION THE EFFECT OF COVID-19.



Gentlemen of the press. 


The leadership of National Association of Polytechnic Students (NAPS) applaud the FG on her most recent decision to return students back to class. 


It is on record that the dreaded Covid left our schools under lock and keys for over six (6) months, Covid invaded at a time nobody envisaged. 

The leaderships of NAPS, NAUS and NANCES being the umbrella bodies for Polytechnics, Universities and Colleges Students respectively embarked on a Nation-wide protest sometime in August after series of attempt to make the FG see reasons to reopen our institutions proved abortive.


Special thanks to some state Governments who listened to our agitations and took it into consideration, thanks for taking the lead. 


It is most pertinent we remind Governments at all level that virtually all agencies, organs and stakeholders were given palliative to cushion the effect of Covid without recourse for students, however, we feel it is imbalance to place some set of Nigerians above another, we like to remind you that even our lecturers were paid their salaries without going to class, leaving our poor Parents unattended to, Our Parents have spent their Capitals to feed us in the face of the dreaded virus and yet nobody is representing or defending their interests. 


We welcome and accept the reopening of our institutions in good fate starting from 12th October 2020, we hereby appeal to Government at all level to consider Tuition fee waiver for Students at all level just for one academic session, let this serve as a form of palliative to as well cushion the effect of Covid on our poor Parents and some students who fend for themselves, it won't be proper for Parents and Students to suffer further hardship from Managements of institutions /schools resulting from taxes and dues. 


In thesame vein, we urge all management heads to strictly adhere to the FG containment directives on campuses in order to avoid the spread of Covid on campus. Our leadership shall appoint State and National task force delegation who will constantly be on a check to ensure that all management heads comply with the containment measures. 


We shall deeply appreciate if our appeal is considered. 


Finally, we congratulate and welcome all students (Returning and Newly admitted) back on campus, we charge you all to be safety conscious, always go about with protective equipments such as Nose Mask, Pocket size alcohol based hand sanitizer and as well maintain social distancing as much as possible, don't hesitate to call our attention in case of any threat whatsoever on campus, always remember to be good ambassadors, remain resolute and law abiding as we patiently await the swift approval of Government with respect to our appeal. 

Aluta Continua, Victoria Acerta.


Signed, 

Activist Sunday A. Asuku GCNPS,

POWER SHIFT TO KWARA NORTH 2027: THE CASE FOR MORO (EDU/MORO/PATIGI FEDERAL CONSTITUENCY)

 POWER SHIFT TO KWARA NORTH 2027: THE CASE FOR MORO (EDU/MORO/PATIGI FEDERAL CONSTITUENCY) The call for power shift to Kwara North in 2027 is not just politics—it is a matter of justice, equity, and fairness. Since the return of democracy in 1999, political power in Kwara State has been unevenly distributed. Kwara Central has dominated governance for decades, while Kwara South has had its opportunity.  However, Kwara North continues to demand its rightful place in the leadership structure. Within Kwara North itself, the same imbalance exists. In the Edu/Moro/Patigi Federal Constituency, the House of Representatives seat has rotated only between Edu and Patigi for nearly 28 years, leaving Moro Local Government completely excluded. This long-standing exclusion makes the demand for Moro’s inclusion not only reasonable—but necessary. Why Moro Must Be Considered in 2027 Equity and Justice: Moro is the only local government in the constituency that has never produced a House of Repr...

A Father Cannot Be Enslaved While the Son Chooses His Path.

 *A Father Cannot Be Enslaved While the Son Chooses His Path* 30th April, 2026 By: JEGEDE ABDULAZEEZ  It is both surprising and disappointing that some elements within the Moro PDP have chosen to drag my father into matters that concern my personal political decisions. Let me state this clearly, a father cannot be enslaved while the son chooses his own path. Political affiliation is a matter of individual conviction, not family bondage. For the better clarification, my father is not a politician but an artisan (musician) who focuses on his craft and personal livelihood. Attempts to label or pressure him politically are unfair, unnecessary, and completely misplaced. Despite of not been a politician, he has dedicated over a decade of his life working tirelessly for the party, contributing his time, energy, and loyalty. Yet, it is evident to all that his sacrifices have not translated into any meaningful or tangible benefit rather than 50K for 11 family men. As for me, I have als...
