… Demands Resignation of Healthcare Director
In a show of solidarity, the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has called for a mass action against the alleged inhumane and callous act of the healthcare director at the Federal University of Technology Akure (FUTA).
The students’ association is demanding the immediate resignation or suspension of the healthcare director, Dr. Adenikinju as well as the proper and effective equipping of the university’s health center within the next 72 hours.
This was contained in a statement signed by NANS Vice President External Affairs,Comr Akinteye Babatunde Afeez.
The call for action comes after reports of inadequate healthcare services and negligence at FUTA’s health center, which has allegedly resulted in harm to students seeking medical attention.
The students have expressed their outrage and concern over the dire situation, prompting NANS to intervene on their behalf.
NANS has urged the management of FUTA to take immediate action to address the healthcare issues within the stipulated timeframe.

Failure to do so will result in a mass action organized by the Zonal Structure of NANS (Southwest) and Ondo Joint Campus Committee (JCC) on Tuesday, August 29, 2023.
During the planned mass action, the students intend to block the north and south gates of FUTA, effectively disrupting the university’s activities until their demands are met.

Meanwhile, NANS has emphasized the urgency of the situation, highlighting the potential risks to the health and well-being of the students. They believe that immediate action is necessary to prevent further harm and ensure that the healthcare needs of the students are adequately met.
