NANS President says students' awards to groups and organizations constitute distractions to student union bodies.
The National Association of Nigerian Students NANS has banned all student union bodies in Nigerian tertiary institutions from presenting awards to organizations and individuals.
According to Punch, the newly elected NANS President, Bamidele Danielson announced the ban during the inauguration of the new executive of the association in Abuja on Thursday, September 6, 2018.
The 32nd NANS President explained that such presentation of awards to groups, organisations and individuals had become a source of distraction for students.
He said that was a need for NANS to reform all student unions towards improving the education system and welfare of members.
Bamidele who is a student of Nasarawa State University, Keffi also assured his fellow Nigerian students that he would live up to their expectations by keeping his campaign promises.
According to Punch, the NANS president campaign promises include stopping the oppression and intimidation of students by school management and the government, as well as attracting local and international training for members.
