Nigerian Students, NANS, has warned the management of Federal University, Wukari, Taraba State against sending students away from the campus or stopping them from registering for academic activities because of inability to pay tuition fees, saying that would amount to being insensitive to the plight of the students.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>The association, in a statement by the National President, Akinteye Babatunde Afeez, said the fact that the students are awaiting the payment of their tuition fees by the Nigerian Education Loan Fund, NELFund, should be enough for the school to exercise caution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>This is just as the association warned that anti-student policies would not be allowed to thrive in the university.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>&#8220;The national leadership of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has received with great discontent and strong resentment, the position of the management of the Federal University, Wukari, directing students who are unable to pay their school fees to defer their semester or academic session, while further warning that failure to either pay tuition fees or formally secure approval for deferment would result in the forfeiture of both the semester and the entire academic session.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>&#8220;The management also stated that students who defer without approval or absent themselves without an approved deferment would be barred from registering for the next academic session. We strongly decry this position, as it is insensitive, anti-student, and contrary to the ideals of accessible and inclusive education.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>&#8220;Humanity must always precede our personal dispositions in the management of institutions. This decision is cruelty in its purest form. At a time when the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has introduced the NELFUND initiative to make education accessible to ordinary Nigerians and every young Nigerian who aspires to pursue higher education, it is disheartening that the Vice-Chancellor of Federal University, Wukari is the very one frustrating students and keeping them out of school because of financial challenges that the initiative was designed to address.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>&#8220;As the apex leadership of Nigerian students, we strongly condemn the position of the management of Federal University, Wukari for adopting a stance that is not student-friendly. This is a direct attack on Nigerian students and the education sector at large.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>&#8220;It is on record that many of these students have already applied for NELFUND, which means the management will receive the tuition fees as soon as NELFUND disburses the funds. It is therefore inhumane for the Vice-Chancellor and the entire management of the institution to deny students the opportunity to write their examinations despite the assurance that NELFUND will certainly disburse the funds in due course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>&#8220;It is also on record that even when many students go out of their way to pay their fees before NELFUND disbursements, several institutions fail to refund them promptly. It was only recently, following sustained pressure from the leadership of NANS, that many of these institutions began processing refunds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>&#8220;According to reports available to us, over 5,000 students have been affected by this decision. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Considering the sheer number of students involved and the willingness of the Vice-Chancellor to deny them access to education, it is evident that his policies are anti-student. More importantly, his actions undermine the very essence of the NELFUND initiative of the President Tinubu whose vision is to ensure that every deserving Nigerian, regardless of financial circumstances, has access to quality education.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>&#8220;Let it be unequivocally stated that there is no circumstance under which the leadership of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) will fold its arms and watch over 5,000 students be denied the opportunity to sit for their examinations on account of late registration, despite having secured funding for their tuition through NELFUND.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>&#8220;Our position, as the apex leadership of Nigerian students, is clear and unambiguous: if these students are not allowed to complete their registration and sit for their examinations, then the examinations should not proceed for anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>&#8220;We shall continue to resist every policy and action that is detrimental to the interests and welfare of Nigerian students. We therefore call on the Vice-Chancellor, as a matter of utmost urgency and importance, to immediately reverse this decision, and ensure that all affected students are allowed to register and participate in their examinations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cbr>&#8220;Failure to comply with this demand will leave the leadership of NANS with no option but to relocate its National Secretariat to the Federal University, Wukari to resist the anti-student policies that the Vice-Chancellor continues to champion until justice is done and the rights of the affected students are restored.&#8221;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The post \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.vanguardngr.com\u002F2026\u002F07\u002Fdont-send-students-away-because-of-fees-nans-warns-federal-university-wukari\u002F\">Don&#8217;t send students away because of fees, NANS warns Federal University, Wukari\u003C\u002Fa> appeared first on \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.vanguardngr.com\">Vanguard News\u003C\u002Fa>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n","dont-send-students-away-because-of-fees-nans-warns-federal-university-wukari",{"id":60,"createdAt":61,"updatedAt":62,"name":63,"slug":64},[220,221,222,223,224,225,226,227,228,229],"dont","send","students","away","fees","nans","warns","federal","university","wukari","https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.vanguardngr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2026\u002F01\u002Fnansd-461x1024.jpeg",{"id":232,"createdAt":233,"updatedAt":234,"name":235,"image":236,"slug":237},"ba5aa7e2-df4c-43a8-ac43-57e16ebb83a0","2026-03-25T11:54:25.227Z","2026-05-14T10:06:39.000Z","Vanguard Nigeria","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.oneclickafrica.com\u002Fmedia\u002Ffeed\u002F5e53f632-5a90-44f5-83e1-eac7059f14f0.webp","vanguard-nigeria","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.vanguardngr.com\u002F2026\u002F07\u002Fdont-send-students-away-because-of-fees-nans-warns-federal-university-wukari\u002F",{"id":240,"createdAt":241,"updatedAt":242,"title":243,"excerpt":244,"content":245,"slug":246,"topic":247,"tags":248,"image":256,"author":83,"feed":257,"views":258,"type":92,"readTime":259,"externalSourceUrl":260},"0868bcf8-4622-4e66-99b5-da20361ddd6b","2026-07-16T04:54:01.028Z","2026-07-16T16:35:59.000Z","Gunmen raid Kogi school, abduct principal, NECO official, students","Gunmen on Tuesday attacked Government Secondary School, Olowa, in Dekina Local Government Area of Kogi State, abducting four students, the principal and a National Examinations Council, NECO, ad-hoc staff.\nThe post Gunmen raid Kogi school, abduct principal, NECO official, students appeared first on Vanguard News.","\u003Cimg width=\"780\" height=\"470\" src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.vanguardngr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2026\u002F06\u002FKogi.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-post-image\" alt=\"Gunmen raid Kogi school, abduct principal, NECO official, students\" decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" srcset=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.vanguardngr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2026\u002F06\u002FKogi.png 780w, https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.vanguardngr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2026\u002F06\u002FKogi-300x181.png 300w, https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.vanguardngr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2026\u002F06\u002FKogi-768x463.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \u002F>\n\u003Cp>***One student rescued— Police\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>***Gov Ododo mobilises security agents to rescue abductees\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>***It’s time to make Safe Schools Initiative work — NAPTAN\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>By Adesina Wahab, Omeiza Ajayi &amp; Boluwaji Obahopo\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>LOKOJA— Gunmen on Tuesday attacked Government Secondary School, Olowa, in Dekina Local Government Area of Kogi State, abducting four students, the principal and a National Examinations Council, NECO, ad-hoc staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>&nbsp;The attack, which occurred at about 5:25 pm while the students were writing their NECO examination, came as three newly passed-out soldiers on their way from Zaria to Zamfara State, were also abducted by terrorists who demanded N50 million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>However, both the Nigerian Defence Academy, NDA, and Defence Headquarters said they were not aware of the development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>&nbsp;On the Kogi attack, residents said the heavily armed assailants stormed the community, firing sporadically to scare people before invading the school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>A community leader, Sunday Alkali, said residents were relaxing under trees when the gunmen suddenly appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“The gunmen seemed surprised to see many people outside at that time of the day and initially retreated.

Yet this has become the grim reality under a government that has normalised insecurity.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Atiku said the latest attack was not an isolated tragedy but part of a dangerous national pattern in which educational institutions had become preferred targets because criminals no longer feared the Nigerian state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“It is impossible to separate this attack from the attitude this administration has displayed towards education.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>‘’A government that has repeatedly made education more expensive through unprecedented increases in WAEC and NECO examination fees, neglected public schools, failed to secure learning environments and reduced education to empty campaign slogans should not be surprised that criminals now see schools as abandoned territories,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He said government policies had sent one unmistakable message, that education is no longer a national priority.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“First, they priced poor children out of classrooms. Then they fail to protect those who remain in school. This is a double assault on the future of Nigeria. One is economic exclusion; the other is violent intimidation.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>‘’Together, they amount to a systematic destruction of the dreams of an entire generation,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Atiku linked the security failure to what he described as reckless federal budgeting, saying the repeated incompetence Nigerians continued to witness under the Tinubu administration was the inevitable consequence of a government that has abandoned probity, discipline and accountability in public finance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He noted that every successful attack on a school emboldened other criminal groups, making educational institutions increasingly attractive targets because the consequences had been minimal and the response largely reactive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“The collapse of school security is not merely a security failure; it is a collapse of governance itself. A country where children cannot safely write examinations is a country steadily surrendering its future to fear,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Atiku called for the immediate and unconditional rescue of every abducted victim and demanded a comprehensive review of security arrangements for all schools and examination centres across the federation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Terrorists abduct 3 newly passed-out soldiers in Zamfara\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, three newly passed-out soldiers have been ambushed and abducted by terrorists while travelling through Anka axis of Zamfara State.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>A source told Vanguard that the soldiers, who had just graduated from the Nigerian Defence Academy, NDA, Kaduna, were travelling from Zaria to Zamfara State when their vehicle was reportedly ambushed by heavily armed terrorists,&nbsp; who abducted them and other passengers and the driver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The new Army personnel were said to have been abducted in Zamfara on July 2, 2026, after they were allegedly abandoned by military authorities while travelling to their destination in Kebbi State, shortly after completing their passing-out exercise at the 26 Nigerian Army (26 NA) formation in Kaduna State.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Initially, the kidnappers reportedly demanded N50 million ransom before later reducing the ransom to N5 million for each captive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Families of the abducted soldiers stated that despite notifying military authorities about the incident, no rescue operation or official response had been communicated to them more than 13 days after the abduction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>However, the NDA told Vanguard on phone yesterday that its management was not aware of the incident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Similarly, the Director of&nbsp; of Media Operations, Defence Headquarters, Major General Michael Onoja, also said the DHQ was not aware of the
