Late yesterday night, the officers of the IGP Tactical Squad arrested the Vice President National Affairs of NANS, Comrade Ilogede Chidi at Enugu.
The arrest was orchestrated by the management of the Madonna University who for 6 months have detained students of the University in prison custody over students peaceful protest demanding for better welfare conditions.
As a matter of urgency, the NANS leadership has commenced immediate effort in ensuring the immediate and unconditional release of the NANS VP National and students of Madonna University that were remanded in prison custody since 6 months ago.
As at the last contact, we were informed that the IGP Tactical Police squad that effected the arrest of Com Chidi Ilogede are currently transporting him to the Nigeria Police Headquarters, Abuja, by road.
Expressly, the NANS secretariat by this medium direct all SUG's within Abuja and those in Kogi, Nasarawa, Plateau, Niger and Kaduna to commence immediate mobilization for this important struggle.
#FreeNANSVPNational.
The NANS leadership is hereby relocating to the Police Headquarters in Abuja awaiting the arrival of the IGP Tactical Squad Team and our VP National in their custody. Comrades in Abuja and environs are hereby invited to join the NANS leadership in demanding for the VP's unconditional release.
While this interface is ongoing, we appeal for restraint on the part of Nigerian students over this very provoking arrest.
Please, await further directive in due course as we try to engage the police authority.
Solidarity forever!
Danielson Bamidele Akpan
NANS President.
