The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has urged President Bola Tinubu to, as a matter of urgency, address the hardship, especially hunger, confronting Nigerians.

The student association declared that economic deprivation is killing the people.

The NANS Clerk of the Senate, Abdulyekinn Odunayo, made the call in a statement released in Abeokuta on Saturday.

Odunayo lamented that the current administration has forced Nigerians to endure needless poverty and hunger.

According to the statement, the Tinubu-led government’s simultaneous elimination of fuel subsidies and floating of the national currency has further sunk Nigerians into economic despair, increased hunger and hiking the cost of living for millions of residents.

Odunayo acknowledged that some students have benefited from the student loan program implemented by Tinubu’s administration, but he called for a complete economic reform so that Nigerians can experience the good governance that the President has promised.

The statements reads, “There is an urgent need by the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to put measures in place to arrest hunger, poverty, impoverishment going on in the country.

“Nigerians are seriously groaning under the heavy burden of the present parlous economic situation. The nation has not had it this bad.

“The dual swords of Damocles of fuel subsidy removal and float of naira have stabbed Nigerians at their hearts.

“Many families can no longer feed even once in a day, let alone three times a day. Free falls of our currency against the dollars and other international currencies have capped the sufferings of Nigerians,

“As representatives of the Nigerian students, we are making a passionate call on the President to tailor and rev up his economic policies to provide short term, medium term and long term reliefs for Nigerians.

“Things need to improve as many Nigerians are finding it difficult to survive.”
