Four students of Sa’Adatu Rimi College of Education including the Student Union President on Thursday died in auto crash along Kano- Kastina road
They were going for inauguration of National Association of Nigerian Students NAN event when the unfortunate incident happened
NANS President comrade Asefon Sunday Dayo in a statement lamented the sudden departure of the comrades
“I and the entire leadership of NANS therefore send our heartfelt condolences to the families of the departed student leaders, the Sa’Adatu Rimi College of Education and the government and the people of Kano State for this monumental loss.
It is therefore imperative that government at all levels must ensure that our roads are in good conditions and necessary precautions are installed on the roads to forestall future occurrences.”
I am by this release declaring that special prayers should be offered for the repose of the departed in all NANS events nationally for the next one week. I will also lead a delegation of the National Leadership to Kano State to condole with the families, College and Government of Kano State.
While awaiting the comprehensive report on the incident, I therefore call on all our comrades across the nation to continue to pray for the repose of the departed and draw inspiration from their sacrifice to ensure that student’s rights are protected always.
This is a sad day for all of us and we pray that God grant their families the fortitude to bear this monumental loss.
