The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has said it will on Friday, shut the Yola International Airport in Adamawa State over the ongoing strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU).
The Zone E chapter of NANS which is to effect the shutdown of the Yola Airport, says it will be in line with NANS nationwide ‘Occupy The Airport’ protest over the lingering ASUU strike.
NANS Zone E Coordinator, Alhassan Adam, in a request letter to the Adamawa State Commissioner of Police note that the protest will begin at the Airport Gate by 9 am.
In the letter, NANS asked the state police commissioner, CP Sikiru Akande, to protect its members to prevent hoodlums from turning the intended peaceful protest into something else.
The letter reads in part: “In line with the directives of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) to shut down all the airports in Nigeria till ASUU calls off the strike, Zone E will not be exempted, and we have scheduled our date of protest on Friday 23rd September, 2022.
