UPDATE: IMSU New Sug Election Date

On the 26th of January, 2018, the ongoing IMSU 2017/2018 SUG Election was cancelled.

For a long while, the management and the Electoral Commission didn't propose a new date for the election.

The National Association of Nigerian Students Zone B(NANS) under the leadership of Comr. Okereke Godson Bishop proposed a mass protest for the conduction of the IMSU SUG Election on Monday 16th April, 2018; although it has been suspended.

Talking to news men, he said...
"We expected a fresh election within a considerable period of time but to my dismay, my students are now getting frustrated over the issue. It's worth interesting to know that Imo State is housing the SECRETARIAT OF NANS ZONE B hence, the institutions within the State ought to set an example for other neighbouring institutions within our zone and Nigeria at large by respecting our union Charter of Demand and ensuring that the students right and privileges are met as at when due.

As a peaceful and focus leadership, we exhaustively used all the peaceful Cs in Struggle remaining Protest which is the last option. However, we made all the necessary structural arrangements and gave 48hrs that could have shock the entire Zone and nation at large, but thanks to Imo State Working Commissioner of Police who called for Peace Talk involving SIB, DSS and the Management of the institution that lasted for hours with the management till about 5pm.





After all the dialogue, they pleaded we suspend the mass action on Monday, as they promised to conduct a fresh election within two weeks!
Note that all the presidential aspirants and IMSU electoral body were present in the meeting.

Thanks to professor B.E.B NWOKE, one time VC of Imsu and currently a DVC  who led other top management teams including the DEAN Student affairs, CSO and Police SIB as the meeting ended in praise and jubilation.

Therefore, I Comrade Okereke Godson C Bishop, the NANS ZONE B(S-EAST/S-SOUTH) COORDINATOR do hereby suspend the earlier planned mass protest on Monday 16th April 2018 in Imo State University till further notice. I appeal you share this messages to all the structures of NANS in our state, Zone and nation as there's no price too much to pay for peace."

ALUTA CONTINUA!!!
