In an effort to highlight the canker-worms plaguing the Nigerian public education system, university students are said to be planning a mass protest in which all roads, especially in the South West zone, will be blocked.

The protest which was organized by the Joint Action Front (JAF) will kick off at the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) office at Yaba, Lagos at 8 a.m. It will also include zonal rallies in Kano, Ibadan, Owerri, Calabar, Abuja, among others.

According to JAF, the aim of the protest is to draw attention to the bleak future that awaits Nigerian children due to the neglect of public education, “while children of top politicians and government officials are trained in private schools in Nigeria and abroad with funds looted from public coffers.”

It will be recalled that the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) had, on July 2, declared an indefinite strike over unresolved issues contained in the 2009 FG/ASUU Agreement.

My sincere hope is that if policemen and soldiers are deployed to caution the students, they should be sane ones....in other words, there should be no indiscriminate shooting of Nigerian students who are fighting for their future...!
